Google AI Mode can make interactive visualisations of financial data
Google has started rolling out interactive chart visualisations in AI Mode in Labs so users can help compare stocks or prices during a specific time period. In a blog posted by the company, Google said that their advanced AI models are able to bring financial data to life drawing from historical and real-time data.
'Ask to 'compare the stock performance of blue chip CPG companies in 2024.' Instead of manually researching individual companies and their stock prices, AI Mode does the heavy lifting for you using Gemini's advanced multi-step reasoning and multimodal capabilities. And ask a follow up like 'did any of these companies pay back dividends?' and AI Mode understands what to research for you,' the blog noted.
Users must enable AI Mode in Search Labs to test the feature.
A report by 9to5Google also said that they had also restored the Lens and voice input to the Search bar on the Discover feed.
Google Labs has also announced they're testing a new feature called 'Portraits' where users can interact 'conversationally with AI representations of trusted experts built in partnership with the experts themselves.'
The company has an open call for people in the U.S. who want to partner with them for 'Portraits.'

Too ‘founder-y' to hire, not corporate enough to fit in: Former startup owner's candid job hunt post strikes a chord on Reddit
It's a story that doesn't get much attention, TED talks, or VC applause—but one that's becoming increasingly common. A Reddit post on r/StartUpIndia from a former Indian startup founder has opened the floodgates of empathy and brutal truth about the aftermath of a failed entrepreneurial journey . After building a health-focused food and beverage product with two friends—bootstrapping, multitasking, and learning everything from scratch—he now finds himself lost in a job market that doesn't know where to place him. 'We Built, We Burned, Now What?' The post reads like a quiet elegy to a dream that once soared. The founder speaks of wearing every possible hat—from marketing and finance to customer support and design. No AI tools then, just endless Google searches and YouTube tutorials. Despite the hustle, the venture hit a ceiling—unable to scale, with no funds left to pump in. His partners stepped away, and the founder reluctantly began job hunting, only to be met with silence or, worse, rejection for being 'overqualified,' 'too founder-y,' or 'not domain-specific enough.' The Dilemma of the 'Misfit' He's not asking for a CXO role. Just a chance to contribute—to bring the value of lived, practical experience into structured setups. But the corporate world, as netizens pointed out, often sees people like him as unsafe bets. 'They want people who can innovate within their control,' one user wrote, echoing a harsh truth. In a system that prizes predictability over potential, founders are sometimes viewed with suspicion. Netizens Share Brutal Truths and Hope The post has garnered strong, supportive reactions from fellow Redditors and professionals. One suggested looking into startups within the same industry. Another spoke about the Indian corporate system's rigidity when it comes to reabsorbing former entrepreneurs. 'You, my friend, will have to search harder,' they wrote. Yet another comment advised the path of an Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EiR), using past mistakes as fuel for new guidance. There's also a silver lining. As one commenter noted, 'Take one skill you truly own… and share it.' Whether through learning platforms, consultancy, or new ventures, those hard-earned insights don't need to die quietly. They can be repurposed and rebranded. Because in this era of AI-led disruption and rapid change, real experience still holds immense, if underappreciated, power. The Bottom Line Not all founder stories end with acquisition, IPOs, or Forbes covers. Some end in silence, in resumes ignored, in doors half-open. But these quiet chapters deserve to be told—because they are real, raw, and deeply human. And perhaps, like the Redditor in question, others floating in the 'in-between' will find solace in knowing they're not alone.

WWDC 2025: Apple could let developers use its AI models to build new features, says report
Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference is all set to take off from 9 June, marking the Cupertino-based tech giant's second-biggest event of the year where it demonstrates all its software prowess. Over the last year, Apple has received a lot of flak for its patchy rollout of new software updates, along with delays in AI features, some of which still haven't arrived. However, the company will likely try to shift attention from those concerns as it focuses on a major rebrand with the unveiling of iOS 26 at WWDC 2025, a significant departure from the current naming scheme used by Cupertino. Gurman says the new AI features to be unveiled by Apple at WWDC 2025 will be minor and are unlikely to impress industry watchers, especially at a time when the pace of AI progress is accelerating, with companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft and OpenAI announcing new products almost every month. Among the AI features Apple is reportedly planning this year is a systemwide push into translation. The Translate functionality will be integrated across Apple operating systems as part of Apple Intelligence, with its main use case being live translation of phone calls and text messages. Gurman adds that the biggest AI-related announcement by Apple will be opening up its large language models (LLMs), the building blocks behind Apple Intelligence, to outside app developers. This will allow them to build their own AI features using the same technology that powers tools like Genmoji and Apple's writing aids. Apple is also expected to announce an upgraded version of its foundation models for both on-device and cloud use at WWDC 2025. Notably, developers will be given access to the on-device version of these LLMs. In terms of other AI announcements, there is unlikely to be any update on Apple's long awaited Siri revamp. Moreover, the Apple's partnership with Google to use Gemini in its apps is also unlikely to be announced at this year's WWDC.
