Google Tensor SDK Beta with LiteRT

The Google Tensor ML SDK is graduating to its Beta phase, allowing developers to build and deploy high-performance machine learning models directly onto the TPU of Google Pixel 10 devices. By integrating with LiteRT, Google's edge deployment framework, the SDK provides a unified workflow for developers to convert, compile, and run PyTorch or TFLite models with robust fallback options. Additionally, a new model garden offers over 100 classic and generative AI models, including Gemma 3, enabling l

An important update: Transitioning Gemini CLI to Antigravity CLI

Google is unifying its AI terminal tools by transitioning the community-focused Gemini CLI into Antigravity CLI, a new agent-first platform built for complex, multi-agent workflows. This new Go-based tool offers faster execution, asynchronous processing, and a unified architecture that syncs with the Antigravity 2.0 desktop application. While enterprise customers will maintain existing access, individual and free users must transition to the new platform before Gemini CLI stops serving requests

Accelerating on-device AI: A look at Arm and Google AI Edge optimization

Integration of Arm Scalable Matrix Extension 2 (SME2) and the Google AI Edge software stack enables high-performance, on-device generative AI by turning the CPU into a powerful matrix-compute accelerator. Using Stability AI’s "stable-audio-open-small" model as a case study, it outlines a streamlined "Convert, Optimize, and Deploy" pipeline that utilizes LiteRT, XNNPACK, and KleidiAI to automate hardware acceleration. The resulting implementation achieves over a 2x speedup in audio generation and

Announcing Genkit Middleware: Intercept, extend, and harden your agentic apps

Genkit is an open-source framework designed to help developers build production-ready, agentic AI applications using TypeScript, Go, Dart, and Python. The framework utilizes a powerful middleware system that intercepts generation calls to inject custom behaviors like retries, model fallbacks, and human-in-the-loop tool approvals. By attaching hooks at the generate, model, and tool layers, developers can ensure high reliability and deterministic control over model outputs. Furthermore, Genkit all
