Google launches new AI tool
Google has announced the launch of its new AI programming agent, 'Joules', which can automatically correct and update code, allowing developers to focus on more complex programming tasks. Operating asynchronously, Joules is powered by the Gemini 2.5 Pro model and integrates with Microsoft's GitHub platform to clone and process code within Google's cloud environment. With its official release, Google is offering a free version that allows users to perform 15 tasks per day, along with paid subscription plans under the Google AI Pro and Ultra tiers, which provide higher usage limits. This announcement follows the beta release of the tool unveiled two months ago at the Google I/O developer conference. Kathy Korevec, Product Director at Google Labs, stated that improving the tool's stability and quality through hundreds of updates was the main reason for making it officially available to users.

I tested Google Veo 3 - this AI video generation tool is scarily good
Google AI Pro recently introduced one of its most exciting features - the advanced video-creation tool Veo 3. The monthly subscription service costs €22 in Ireland and for that you get 1,000 AI credits (to make videos) along with other features such as 2TB of Google Storage and Nest security camera storage. Veo 3 creates shareable eight-second video clips from just text prompts and these clips include ambient audio, sound effects and on screen dialogue.

READ MORE: Redmagic Astra gaming tablet review: ultra-portable Android device is a powerhouse for gamers Each video clip takes one to two minutes to be generated, and from my experience the more detail is included in your instructions the better the resulting video will be. You can be specific about the accompanying soundtrack too. One caveat is the strict Google rules that forbid offensive content creation of deepfake videos of known celebrities or politicians. Occasionally Veo 3 makes mistakes - I asked for dolphins leaping from the sea in one clip but they looked like they were jumping from the sandy shore instead. But overall I am super impressed by the ultra-realistic cinematic content that Veo 3 can create just from text prompts. It's so good already that it is scary - imagine where this tech will be a couple of years from now. In this clip, dolphins are leaping from the sandy shore and not the sea - but such Veo 3 errors were rare in my testing (Image: Mark Kavanagh) One downside is that the clips are currently only created in the 16:9 aspect ratio that is not ideal for social media. They are also only standard HD resolution and are not full HD or 4K in resolution. You can download your clips as shareable mp4 files. I would guess that Image to Video will be added to Veo 3 soon as this video-generation party trick, which works on any photo in your library, has already been introduced on Honor's 400 Pro smartphone. If you want to try Google AI Pro before you buy, there's a one-month free trial available.

The firm also unveiled a promo video which shows one of the expected (but not confirmed) three non-folding phones - Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL. Google is also expected to deliver a new foldable handset following the huge sales success and widespread acclaim it received for Pixel 9 Pro Fold. It will have to pull out all the stops to beat the almost universal praise already heaped on Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 which recently went on sale in Ireland.

Google pledges $1 billion to transform how US students learn AI: Here's what they are getting for free
In a bold step to reshape higher education and workforce readiness, Google has announced a $1 billion initiative to offer free AI education, training tools, and career resources to college students across the United States. Aimed at building the next generation of 'AI natives,' the initiative targets both individuals and institutions, with the goal of bridging the skills gap in a fast-changing job market. This three-year program is already being rolled out at over 100 accredited US colleges and universities, including major institutions like Texas A&M and the University of North Carolina. What exactly are students getting for free? Under this initiative, US college students enrolled in nonprofit, accredited institutions will receive: 12 months of free access to the Google AI Pro plan , which includes advanced AI tools like Gemini, Google's latest chatbot and generative AI assistant. Free online "Career Certificates" in AI, tailored to help students gain job-ready skills at their own pace. Flexible, self-paced learning modules that prepare students for in-demand AI-related roles in areas such as data analysis, machine learning, and prompt engineering. These offerings are designed to make students "AI fluent", empowering them with skills that are quickly becoming essential across industries. Support for institutions: Grants, credits, and infrastructure Beyond student-focused training, the initiative will also provide select colleges and nonprofit organisations with: Cloud computing credits to run AI applications or research Cash grants to support the integration of AI courses into their curriculum Access to teaching materials and Google tools that enable faculty to deliver cutting-edge AI instruction This dual-track approach ensures that both students and their institutions benefit from Google's investment in AI education. Dynamic job market Google's announcement comes at a time when the US job market is undergoing an AI-driven transformation. While AI is creating high-growth opportunities, it's also leading to disruption: Entry-level job postings fell by 15% in 2024, according to labor market data. At least 10,000 jobs were cut last year with companies citing AI automation as a key factor. By giving students early access to practical AI tools and credentials, Google aims to help them adapt to this evolving landscape and enter the workforce with a competitive edge. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Uncover cards that can help you get seat upgrades Intuit Credit Karma Learn More Undo What's next?

Google Pixel 10 launch: 5 Biggest upgrades to expect on August 20
The Pixel 10 series is confirmed to be unveiled at the upcoming 'Made by Google' event on August 20, 2025. To build hype for the new flagships, Google has been releasing small teasers of the Pixel 10 models, giving us a glimpse into the smartphone design and the new Moonstone colour variant. While the entire lineup looks exciting, the standard Pixel 10 models are expected to be a smart buy this year. Reportedly, the Pixel 10 model is rumoured for a major upgrade, and we can see several Pro-like features coming to the device. Therefore, if you are planning for a flagship upgrade, then know about these 6 biggest upgrades coming to the Google Pixel 10. Google Pixel 10 is likely to offer several upgrades over its predecessor. Here are the 5 biggest upgrades we know so far.(Screengrab/Google) Google Pixel 10: 5 biggest upgrades Improve performance with Tensor G5: Google is expected to introduce the next-generation chip, the Tensor G5, for the entire Pixel 10 lineup. Reportedly, the processor is built with TSMC's 3nm process, bringing greater efficiency and improved performance. Therefore, with Pixel 10, we can expect refined performance in comparison to its predecessor. New telephoto lens and tele-macro feature: The Pixel 10 is expected to feature a new telephoto camera. Earlier, the base model consisted of a dual camera setup that included a main and ultrawide camera. Now, the Pixel 10 will likely feature an 11MP telephoto lens with a Samsung 3J1 sensor. Additionally, Google may introduce the tele-macro feature that may use both telephoto and ultrawide lenses for macro shots. Upgraded display: This year, the Pixel 10 model is expected to feature a 6.3-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with an upgraded 120Hz refresh rate. This year, the smartphone is expected to offer a brighter screen along with improved PWM dimming rate. This is said to reduce eye strain and screen flickering. Qi2 support: The Pixel 10 is expected to offer Qi2 wireless charging. However, it is unclear whether the smartphone will get Qi2 Ready certification or will support the magnets in the phone body. Either way, Qi2 wireless charging is more efficient and convenient. We can also expect a faster charging speed. Google AI Pro free trial: Lastly, Google could offer a Google AI Pro subscription to Pixel 10 users. However, it may have a limited period of 3 or 6 months. With a free trial, users will be able to access the latest AI models, increased cloud storage, video and image generation models, and much more. Despite several upgrades coming to the Google Pixel 10, the price is expected to remain the same as last year. Therefore, buyers can enjoy upgraded features at a similar price to the predecessor.

Google's powerful AI coding agent Jules is now available to everyone — here's why it's not just for developers
Google's AI-powered coding agent, Jules, is now available to the public. After a months-long beta, the asynchronous agent, designed to help users write, test and improve code, has launched with a slew of upgrades and broader availability. While it's clearly built with developers in mind, Google is also positioning Jules as a helpful tool for anyone dabbling in automation, app building or website design, even if they don't have a formal programming background. Jules runs on Gemini 2.5 Pro, Google's latest AI model optimized for logical reasoning and advanced planning. Jules has the ability to run tasks in parallel, making it especially efficient for large or multi-step workflows. The agent can now reuse past setups, visualize test results and even integrate with GitHub Issues for a more seamless development loop. During its beta, users submitted tens of thousands of taskss, resulting in over 140,000 code improvements shared publicly. Based on that feedback, Google has revamped the interface, fixed bugs and added features like multimodal support, allowing Jules to display visual outputs from web applications so users can see exactly what's happening with their code. But you don't need to be a full-time engineer to benefit. Casual users can now explore Jules through an introductory tier, ideal for side projects or early experimentation. For professionals, Google is offering Pro and Ultra tiers with significantly higher usage limits, up to 20x more capacity for enterprise or multi-agent workflows. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. This public release aligns with Google's broader push to make Gemini-based agents more accessible across all its products, not just in developer tools. The company is betting big on asynchronous, task-oriented AI that does more than just respond in a chat window, but executes as well. As AI assistants become more agentic, meaning they can plan, take action and adapt over time, tools like Jules may soon become essential to us beyond software development. We may seem them more often in business operations, creative work and even personal productivity. Jules is now available via Google Labs. Users with a Google account can try it for free, with upgrade options available through Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions.
