Google pulled off I/O, its developers conference, without a hitch yesterday. The Mountain View company retook the stage in grandiose fashion with a bevvy of announcements ranging from the much-ballyhooed new LaMDA AI system that has eerily human-like conversations to the new Wear OS update that has my editor in chief hyped about smart watches again. But, by far, the most interesting news we heard at I/O has to be... Read more ›

The Way of the Future, a church founded by a former Google and Uber engineer, is now a thing of the past. It’s been a few months since the world’s first AI-focused church shuttered its digital doors, and it doesn’t look like its founder has any interest in a revival. But it’s a pretty safe bet we’ll be seeing more robo-centric religious groups in the future. Perhaps, however, they won’t... Read more ›

I’ve been turned off smartwatches for a while now. Whether it was their poor battery life and uninteresting design, I’ve found I much prefer the simplicity and elegance of my analogue timepieces. Since the pandemic though, things have changed. In order to get out the house and avoid screens, I now walk about 10km a day, time I use to catch up on audiobooks and podcasts. Thing is, I’d like...

Let’s face it: Smartwatches for Android haven’t been really great. I used to be all in on smartwatches, but after constant disappointment as an Android user, I gave up on the idea altogether. Wear OS devices are usually too bulky, slow, and/or have sucky battery life. And while Samsung largely addressed the battery life problem by going with its own Tizen OS devices, app support for Galaxy Watches has been... Read more ›

One of the coolest announcements at Google I/O this year was also one we did not expect: Google is working on holographic video calls — or something a lot like that — through a system called Project Starline. Project Starline aims to make video calls more natural by using a large display that shows life-size, 3D images of participants. It’s not just 3D like a 3D movie, but rather it... Read more ›
