Transitioning Gemini CLI users to Antigravity CLI We are unifying our efforts around a single harness and platform, Google Antigravity with four distinct surfaces: • Antigravity 2.0 • Antigravity CLI • Antigravity SDK • Antigravity IDE This will allow us to move faster and give you a streamlined experience wherever you do your best work. Rebuilt in Go for speed, Antigravity CLI is available today and brings robust multi-agent orchestration and asynchronous workflows to your terminal. Important things to know: 1. If you are using Gemini CLI through your Google one account (Google AI Pro or AI Ultra) or through Gemini Code Assist for individuals (free offering) we will be helping you migrate your workflows over the next 30 days. 2. No action required for Enterprise users. Enterprise plans and API keys will continue to be supported in Gemini CLI. Read the full details in our blog post → goo.gle/4eWkUgK

[Blog Post] Apple previews new accessibility features coming later this year: improved visual descriptions, auto-generated subtitles, and more applevis.com/blog/apple-pre…

Perspective Intelligence can now load Apple Foundation Models adapters as user agents! This gives the app specific knowledge sets based on the adapter that's loaded. This will be in version 1.15.

Accessibility Alert: I hope the Google team has checked if these agentic coding experiences through search are accessible. This will be used in education and other areas and the experiences should always be accessible.

what’s new in AI Studio: - workspace integration: build with the Google ecosystem of apps (Docs, Sheets, Gmail, and more) - Android apps: vibe code and test apps on your phone - publish your first two apps live on Cloud Run, no credit card required

We’re going Compose First! 🥇 Starting today, we’ll provide all new APIs, libraries, tools, and guidance in Compose only. Views are now entering maintenance mode, so if you haven't, now's the time to migrate your apps to Jetpack Compose → goo.gle/Compose_IO26 #GoogleIO

I just downloaded an app for creating shortcuts with AI, which is an amazing concept. But, please check your apps when vibe coding people. it says 188 downloa... Not only did you vibe code it but you didn't test it either. I am all for using AI to create an app but make a good experience. That is important too.

I've been building Shortcuts for quite a while and I would recommend that people NOT download and use ShortcutStudio. This is a very expensive app. that uses AI to create shortcuts. It is a very cool idea, but much of this could be done with on device models and another system to sign the created Shortcuts. This is a hard no for me, and I would not pay for the subscription.

We have put out a release candidate for NVDA 2026.1.1. This is a patch release to fix security issues. A bug fix is also included for an issue introduced in 2026.1 with how ctrl+f is handled in File Explorer. Read more and download from: nvaccess.org/post/nvda-2026… #NVDA #NVDAsr

Perspective Transcribe 1.2 is out now. I love working on an app I actually care about. This update fixes iCloud sync issues and makes long transcripts easier to skim by splitting them into paragraphs. You can use it on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. Which feature would you use most? - Mac transcription - iCloud sync - Paragraph transcripts - VoiceOver-friendly reading #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #MacApps #Accessibility

Just done a wee cameo on #Snluk - so much fun and just a superb experience to watch live. What incredible energy they have. And special thanks and big love to Ayoade Bamgboy.

What app is your favorite? Perspective Intelligence or Perspective Transcribe. I'd love to know everyone's thoughts.

Finally!

Since this was the last episode of the current season I just wanna say it was absolutely amazing! #SNLUK

@davepr2000 I agree, SNL UK has brought back the good old days of Saturday night TV, for a long while weekend television was in a way trash, but then this came along and reignited what it means to watch TV on Saturday night, and I love it!

Thank you #SNLUK! You’ve made Saturday night TV original and exciting again. Can’t wait for season two. I’ve become a huge fan of these brilliant comics. They silenced the critics and doubters and are fast becoming household names. Bring on season two!
