What’s Happening in AI Today
1. Gemini lands on Mac as a dedicated app: Google's AI assistant now runs natively on macOS. A quick keyboard shortcut pulls it up over whatever you're working on, and it reads your screen to answer in context. It carries across your devices and ships with the full suite of Google's AI tools — including Nano Banana for image generation and Veo for video.
2. Google Chrome is becoming an agent, one "Skill" at a time: Google is rolling out a new "Skills" system inside Chrome that lets the browser take actions on your behalf — booking, searching, filling forms, and more — without you manually doing each step. Rather than launching a single all-in-one agent, Google is building the capability gradually, adding one skill at a time so the browser quietly becomes more autonomous over time.
3. Audit your business with Notion's built-in Claude agents: Notion has integrated Claude agents directly into its workspace, allowing teams to run internal audits, surface insights from existing docs, and automate repetitive review tasks — all without leaving the tool they already use for everything else. The agents can read across your entire Notion workspace and act on what they find.
The Gemini app is now on Mac.
With this new desktop app, you can access Gemini from any screen with Option + Space and share your window to get answers based on the documents, code, or data you're working on.
Hiring in 8 countries shouldn't require 8 different processes

Allbirds has secured a $50M financing deal to reinvent itself as "NewBird AI" — abandoning its footwear roots entirely to become a GPU rental business. The announcement sent the stock up over 600% in a single day.
The details:
The company had already sold off its brand assets to American Exchange Group in March for $39M — a steep drop from its $4B valuation at IPO in 2021.
The pivot announcement pushed shares of $BIRD from around $3 to over $20, lifting a market cap that had closed the previous day at just $22M.
The $50M will go toward buying GPUs that will be rented out to AI companies under long-term contracts — a GPU-as-a-Service model.
Shareholders will vote next month on removing Allbirds' "public benefit" status, formally closing the chapter on its sustainable-footwear identity.
Why it matters: This is the AI rebrand playbook taken to its logical extreme — not adding AI features, but gutting the entire business and replacing it with infrastructure. It is the same move blockchain companies pulled with dying tickers half a decade ago. The compute shortage gives the pitch more credibility this time, but the underlying move is the same: use a hot trend to rescue a struggling stock. Whether the business holds up is a separate question.
