Meanwhile, a startup wants to put digital versions of your dead relatives at your wedding, and the internet is not okay with it. Jeff and Annie break down Google’s Gemini 3 leap, Anti-Gravity’s agent-managed coding environment, and Microsoft’s push to make Windows the first truly agent-native OS. They unpack xAI’s Grok 4.1 pivot from hard-edged “truth-seeking” to emotional, collaborative chat — and what that says about what people actually want from AI. Plus, Google’s new AI shopping tools meet the ethical car crash of AI holograms that refuse to rest in peace. 🧠 In this episode, we cover: Gemini 3 & Anti-Gravity: Is Google finally shipping an AI you’d actually switch to — and how much privacy would you trade for better agents? Windows as an Agent-Native OS: Why Microsoft’s taskbar agents are a real threat to Apple’s lagging Siri ecosystem. ChatGPT Group Chats: How multi-person AI threads could change brainstorming, teamwork, and the way we argue. AI Shopping & Digital Ghosts: Google’s agentic checkout for Black Friday deals — and the deeply unsettling startup selling AI holograms of the dead.
