Following this morning’s expansion, Google is heavily using its Pixel, Nest, and other consumer-facing brands to invite people to use Bard.

Android Auto’s “Coolwalk” dashboard update has been around for a couple of months now, but Google’s own navigation app, Waze, has lacked support for the platform refresh, but it seems like things are progressing.

The conversational aspects of generative AI and large language models (LLMs), like LaMDA, make it ripe for smart assistants. Google specifically mentioned Assistant two years ago as a product where it hopes to incorporate “better conversational features.” That has yet to happen, but the Google Assistant team is helping lead Bard development.

Google announced the Pixel Watch March 2023 update yesterday, and you can now download and install it using the usual trick.

Google today opened up early access to Bard, its generative AI chatbot, and we’ve had a bit of time to play around with it. The takeaway so far? Google isn’t exactly treading new ground here, but Bard is at least much more clear on what it can do, can’t do, and where it falls short.

With smartphone prices constantly increasing year-over-year, you might want to make your current phone last a little longer before contemplating an upgrade. When long-term support for your handset ends, the next best thing is a custom ROM. One of the most prominent is Lineage OS 20.

As ChatGPT, Bing, and others have opened the floodgates for generative AI, Google is today finally opening up access to its Bard AI starting today.

The Oppo Find X6 Pro was just announced for China and while it won’t ever come to the US, just a few hours using it shows what we’re missing. The Oppo Find X6 Pro quite literally shines with an insanely bright display, as well as an impressive primary camera.

In recent days, Chrome has added your past search queries to the New Tab Page on Android so that they appear alongside frequently visited sites. 

Oppo is today announcing its latest flagship smartphone series, with the Oppo Find X6 and Find X6 Pro delivering some major upgrades.

Google released Android 13 QPR3 Beta 1 last week to kick off a new, unexpected preview cycle and is now asking for more detailed survey feedback.

Google is preparing a new feature for the Pixel 8 Pro that would combine multiple cameras to take even better Night Sight photos.

Never settle. It’s the tagline that OnePlus has used since its inception, and also the line that has become a bit of a mockery as the brand has changed over the years. But compromises are a part of any good phone, and with its latest OnePlus 11, I’ve got to admit, I’m actually a lot happier with the balance OnePlus has struck than I thought I would have been.

Google is now rolling out the Pixel Watch’s March 2023 update two weeks after it was originally expected, and it’s a sizable release.

Find my Phone is a fantastic tool in your arsenal, though it’s worthless if it isn’t enabled on your devices. The Fitbit Sense 2 is one such device that doesn’t have the feature turned on by default. Here’s how to turn on and enable Find my Phone on your Fitbit Sense 2.

Google has been under fire for not yet releasing Bard, its generative AI similar to OpenAI’s GPT-3 and GPT-4, but testing is underway. Now Google is opening Bard up to some of its Pixel Superfans.
