Spark on Mac.

Google is rolling out its frighteningly good AI agent to the Gemini macOS app, meaning Spark can access and work with files on your computer.

The company is adding a few other new features to Spark, too, including the ability to connect Tasks and Keep to the agent, use integrations with apps like Canva and Instacart, and track topics in real time.

Apple is acquiring the Play app. No, not that one.

The Play design tool for Mac and iPhone won an Apple Design Award for innovation last year, and could be used to prototype iPhone app interfaces before it was pulled from the App Store. Apple doesn’t specifically mention how it’ll use Play, but its IP could be used to improve Xcode developer tools.

Mac and iPad devices might get a colorful OLED upgrade.

That’s according to this Trendforce report, which says Apple is planning to adopt OLED panels across its future MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, and iMac products that are capable of achieving 95 percent coverage of the BT.2020 color gamut. BT.2020 covers more of the visible color spectrum compared to DCI-P3 standard Apple currently uses.

Apple’s Vision Pro and smart glasses leader reportedly leaves for OpenAI.

With its Vision Pro headset suddenly even more expensive, and plans for smart glasses apparently in the works, Bloomberg reports Apple is losing Paul Meade, the hardware VP who was in charge of those projects. The report says he’ll reunite with former Apple designers, including Jony Ive, Tang Tan, and Evans Hankey, at OpenAI, which purchased their startup last year, as the executive shakeup under new Apple CEO John Ternus continues.
