Google launches a Gemini app for iPad
Google is once again crossing the great divide between rival tech giants, at least with artificial intelligence. The company has launched a dedicated iPad app for its Gemini AI assistant. In addition to natively running on Apple hardware, Gemini's iPad app can take advantage of the tablet's split view, so that the AI assistant is open on the screen at the same time as another program for easier use. The app is available today from the App Store in all countries where Gemini is currently available. Gemini has been a huge focus for Google's recent announcements as it works to put its service in front of more and more potential users. The company recently introduced a program for children to explore the AI assistant and it opened the Deep Research capability to all Gemini users.

Microsoft's new AI skills are coming to Copilot PCs - including some for all Windows 11 users
Microsoft is kicking off a slew of new and improved AI skills that it's touting as a "new generation of Windows experiences." In a blog post published Tuesday, the company described what's in store for Copilot PCs and what's heading to all Windows 11 users. Let's start with the skills that require a Copilot PC. First up is an AI-powered improvement in how you can access and change common Windows settings. Sometimes modifying a key setting is quick and simple; other times, not so much.
Katy Perry's Met Gala moment was stunning -- and totally fake
No, that's not Katy Perry dripping in a dress made of thick, oily liquid. In fact, Katy Perry wasn't even at the Met Gala last night, and that photo, realistic as it may have been for the thousands who reposted it, was created entirely by artificial intelligence. In response, Perry posted the edit to her Instagram and captioned it, "couldn't make it to the MET, I'm on The Lifetimes Tour (see you in Houston tomorrow IRL‼) P.s. this year I was actually with my mom so she's safe from the bots but I'm praying for the rest of y'all." "Not once but twice," her longtime partner, Orlando Bloom, commented under the photo. But despite Perry very clearly not being there, the internet fell for it. And it's kind of fair -- there were multiple angles of the AI look, and even an AI-generated sketch of the outfit made to look like a custom dress illustration.
Microsoft introduces agent for AI-powered settings controls in Copilot PCs
Microsoft announced a series of upcoming new features for Copilot PCs and Windows 11. One of the most compelling updates for Copilot PCs is agent, which provides on-device AI assistance for adjusting a PC's settings. Some of the example tweaks Microsoft gave for this application are issues such as "how to control my PC by voice" and "my mouse pointer is too small." Not only can the agent answer these types of queries, but if the necessary permissions are granted, the AI can also make the requested changes for a user. The blog post specifies that only questions in English are "initially" supported, which hints that more languages will be added at a later date.
