Today, many organizations are moving towards lakehouse architectures to have a single copy of their data and use multiple engines for different workloads — without having to copy or move the data.

We think a lot about the future of AI here at Chrome Unboxed. We talk about how it will write our emails, organize our calendars, and maybe even code our apps.

We already know that Gemini 3 is a new, powerhouse model, but the biggest question with these launches is always: “When will I actually see it in the products I use?” Usually, the answer for Google Search is “months from now.” Not this time.

The Black Ops series has always blurred the lines between fiction and reality by taking emerging technology and introducing it into various high-pressure scenarios.

Chromebooks have spent the last few years becoming surprisingly decent for gaming, even if most people still picture them as lightweight machines for school or work.
