  • Apple delayed its Siri upgrade to 2026.

  • In the meantime, it is testing Google’s Gemini model to power Siri, Safari, and Spotlight.

  • Spotlight was supposed to replace Google search, but now it may rely on Google instead.

  • This shows Apple’s own AI still isn’t good enough to compete with OpenAI or Google.

  • NotebookLM now makes AI podcasts in different styles like Deep Dive, Brief, Critique, or Debate.

  • You can pick how long they are and even choose new voices.

  • Google also added Video Overviews, featured notebooks, and mobile apps.

  • Slowly, NotebookLM is turning into Google’s tool for how people learn from documents.

Would you use AI-generated podcasts (like NotebookLM) to learn from dense material?
