Hey, it's the Carat team. 🤗
Today we've got Google putting AI inside the mouse cursor, an AI TV show competition, and a SHOW ME THE MONEY prompt tip.
🔥 Google Just Replaced the 50-Year-Old Mouse Cursor with AI?
ⓒ Google DeepMind
Google DeepMind put AI inside the mouse cursor. Point anywhere on screen, say "fix this," and Gemini executes instantly.
Since the mouse was invented in 1968, the cursor has just been an arrow for 56 years. DeepMind connected Gemini to the cursor so AI automatically reads the context of whatever you're pointing at. Hover over a PDF and say "summarize this," point at a photo and say "move this furniture" — it just runs.
We're moving from "copy and paste into AI" to "just point and talk." That's it.
