Amid growing concerns about the environmental impact of artificial intelligence, Google says it has calculated the energy required for its Gemini AI service: Sending a single text prompt consumes as much energy as watching television for nine seconds.

It’s the most transparent estimate yet from one of the big AI companies, and a long-awaited peek behind the curtain for researchers.

Commentary: Gemini for Home is a huge leap into conversational AI for all Nest users, and we've been waiting for serious improvements.

Gemini queries are getting cleaner and more efficient, according to data it published today, but their total carbon footprint is still growing.

For likely the first time ever, security researchers have shown how AI can be hacked to create real world havoc, allowing them to turn off lights, open smart shutters, and more.

Google is rolling out an update for Gemini that will allow the AI chatbot to “remember” your past conversations without prompting. With the setting turned on, Gemini will automatically recall your “key details and preferences” and use them to personalize its output.

Google has been ramping up pressure for employees to use AI tools. Staff say it's a 'no brainer' for getting ahead at the company now.
