Google has launched a new universal online shopping cart that integrates with the Gemini AI platform and the Google Search engine. The cart is designed to help users shop across the web and find deals, and it is being rolled out ahead of the holidays. Meanwhile, comparisons between AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude are ongoing, with some users finding alternative AI tools more suitable for their needs. Google's Gemini's Argon model is also making progress towards the AI frontier, while free AI Pro trials on Pixel smartphones face restrictions compared to paid subscribers.
