Google just unveiled the Pixel 10 lineup at its star-studded ‘Made by Google‘ event, powered by a new Tensor G5 chip and packed with 20+ AI features, including advanced photo editing, ‘Magic Cue’ suggestions, live translations, and more. A new ‘Visual Guidance’ upgrade allows Gemini Live to give real-time visual cues on a user’s phone screen.

LeafGuard replaces your entire system with a design that's earned the Good Housekeeping Seal for 15 consecutive years. AI News Roundup readers qualify for 75% off installation plus $200 off. Custom-manufactured for your home with lifetime protection.

NASA and IBM just released Surya, a new AI foundation model trained on nine years of solar observations that predicts solar flares and space weather events with extreme accuracy. Surya analyzed millions of images from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, learning to forecast solar eruptions and beating existing predictions by 16%.

Google just announced that the company is replacing its AI Assistant with Gemini across its Nest home speaker and display lines this fall, bringing advanced conversational AI, Gemini Live, and multi-device awareness to smart home control. Gemini for Home understands complex commands and can also handle multiple requests in a single sentence without requiring rigid voice commands.

Following in Meta’s footsteps, Grok has been exposing users’ conversations: When a user “shares” a chat, a unique link is created, which is indexed by search engines, like Google, which means anyone can see it. Currently, there’s no warning about this, and so far, over 370,000 conversations have been indexed by Google, with some of the conversations including sensitive information, like personal details.

Big investors are buying this “unlisted” stock

When the founder who sold his last company to Zillow for $120M starts a new venture, people notice. That’s why the same VCs who backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also invested in Pacaso.

Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacaso’s streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties, revamping the $1.3T vacation home market.

And it works. By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits in their operating history.

Now, after 41% YoY gross profit growth last year alone, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

AI Tutorial

How to use the Copilot AI function in Excel

  • Open Microsoft Excel

  • Enter a natural language prompt in your spreadsheet with the =COPILOT function and reference cell values as needed

Sample Prompt: =COPILOT(prompt_part1, [context1], [prompt_part2], [context2], ...)

Prompt_part: Text that describes the task or question for the AI model

Context (optional): A reference from the grid that provides context or data for the AI model. This can be a single cell or a range

  • Within seconds Copilot will generate AI-powered results based on your prompt

  • You can use it to classify data, generate summaries, create lists or tables, etc.

A reverse mortgage can be a smart way for older homeowners to fund home improvement projects – especially upgrades that make aging in place safer and more comfortable. Whether it’s remodeling a kitchen, installing a walk-in tub, or adding ramps and railings for accessibility, the loan lets you tap into your home’s equity for cash without monthly payments.
