"A job listing reveals the first details of Google’s fusion of Android and ChromeOS. "
“We know a little more about Google’s long-gestating plans to combine the best parts of Android and ChromeOS into a single OS thanks to a job listing for a product manager to work on ‘Aluminium OS.’ The job ad describes it as ‘a new operating system built with Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the core.’”
Can’t wait for Google to drop this after a year leaving anyone who was using it fucked.
everybody definitely wants an even more locked down and ai bloated os than windows
A few decades ago I could have excited. A few years ago I would have been interested. Nowadays I’m just “more closed bullshit from google, meh”
I’d rather die
so, AI powered spyware…
Gotta stick AI in there for the stock price huh?
I wouldn’t mind if you could plug application intents into an MCP converter and then let models work with that.
I don’t really trust the idea of ai at the core.
I remember when this garbage used to be called malware.
Wasn’t this
ChromeFuschia?That wasn’t built around agentic AI integration.
This will be.
Wasn’t this posted like a week ago without the paywall?
I think it was on Thanksgiving, but the last few days have felt like a week
They think I am going to touch that after what they did to android, hell no.
No thanks, I’m good
I wouldn’t touch that with a stolen hand mounted on the end of a ten-foot barge pole.
Wasn’t there already something like “Android for x86”?
There’s also BlissOS if you want to run android on a desktop with a more desktop-like gui.
QEMU
QEMU is an emulator, what they’re talking about is an android port to x86.
Hard pass.
