Angi (NASDAQ: ANGI) says it is one of the first home services marketplaces available through AI Mode in Google Search, adding another way for homeowners to find Angi alongside its connected app in Gemini, launched in August. When a homeowner selects an Angi professional surfaced through AI Mode, they are taken to that pro's profile on Angi to learn more and request a quote. The company also says 50% of homeowners engage with AI within Angi's core experience, and those who do convert at roughly three times the rate of those who do not.

- Chrome Can Now Pull Details From Your Gmail to Fill Out Web Forms
Google began rolling out Chrome's enhanced autofill on Oct. 28, letting Gemini search Gmail for order numbers, tracking information and flight bookings to fill web forms. The feature is for U.S. users with Personal Intelligence turned on, on desktop, Android and iOS; Google says sensitive data is encrypted and can be managed in Chrome settings. The announcement does not list credit cards or addresses as Gmail data and does not explain how encryption applies to the Gmail content Chrome reads. Google also revised its privacy policy effective Oct. 16, allowing personalized ads to use Gmail, Drive and Photos data if users choose to make it available to other Google services.
- The Companies Placing Bets on Putting Data Centers in Space
Google has recently launched its first test computer chips, Tensor Processing Units, to see how they withstand spaceflight vibration, radiation and extreme temperatures, working with satellite firm Planet. Other players include Starcloud, K2 Space, Blue Origin, Axiom Space and Cowboy Space, and Nvidia has a chip design built for orbital stress. SpaceX, which controls its own rockets and satellite manufacturing, plans to launch thousands of data centers a year using up to 100 gigawatts of power, and Musk says launches could start in 2027 with a network of up to 1 million orbital data centers. The article lists major challenges, including radiating heat through large metal panels in a vacuum, linking data centers with high-bandwidth lasers, and replacing chips about every 5 years. Google says its plans depend on sharply lower launch costs, possibly by 2035, and the article describes the business model as brutal compared with land-based data centers.
- Accenture Expands Federal AI Push With Google's Gemini Agents, Months After OpenAI Partnership
Accenture and Google Public Sector announced Gemini launchpads to help U.S. federal agencies move AI agents from experimentation into operations, integrating them with existing government systems and datasets. A centralized team of forward-deployed engineers will work alongside government staff, and pre-built agents are being developed for human resources, finance and supply chain tasks. The announcement did not name federal customers, disclose contract values or give revenue projections. The initiative builds on the Gemini Enterprise Business Group, where Accenture committed to 1,000 forward-deployed engineers, and follows Accenture Federal's May partnership with OpenAI. So far this year, ACN stock has fallen about 11% while GOOG has risen nearly 7%.
- Unity Stock In Focus After Google AI Game Creation Partnership
Google and Unity Software have announced a partnership to build Unity Spark, an AI-powered game creation platform that combines Google's AI research, its large consumer ecosystem and Unity's engine technology, supporting everything from text-prompt projects to high-end 3D experiences. The article argues the deal ties Unity's creation pipeline to Google's distribution and community features, which could affect user acquisition costs and the mix between casual creators and professional studios. It notes Unity remains unprofitable with high R&D spending, with key near-term drivers including Unity 6, AI features and the subscription Create business, while heavy AI spend and uneven adoption are the main risks. The analyst model projects revenue of US$3.6 billion and earnings of US$991.4 million by 2029, based on 20.7% annual revenue growth, up from a loss of US$587.5 million today.
- Google Says AI Isn't Building Itself Yet—Even Though It Writes 75% of the Code
Google DeepMind's safety report on its Gemini 4 Argon model found no statistically significant acceleration in AI research, with its capability index rising a steady 0.1 points per month. Although most production code at the lab is more than 75% AI-written, about 88% of pull requests still need human steering or human-written code. Argon solved roughly half of the internal research engineering tasks it completed, well below the 90% score DeepMind treats as a red flag for full automation. DeepMind concluded the risk from AI-driven ML R&D is currently low, but acknowledged the report covers only its own lab and cannot rule out that an unrestricted Argon crosses its danger thresholds for cyberattacks and bioweapons information.

- What Is x402? How AI Agents Pay With Crypto
x402 is an open payment standard from Coinbase that uses the long-unused HTTP 402 “Payment Required” code so AI agents and apps can pay for online services. Payments are mostly made in USDC on Base through facilitators, and buyers sign an authorization rather than create accounts or API keys. More than 50 companies, including Visa, Mastercard and Google, have joined the x402 Foundation, which now governs the protocol under the Linux Foundation. According to Fireblocks, x402 had processed more than 196 million transactions across 12 chains as of November 1, 2026, settling over $42 million, though more than half of lifetime transactions came from a two-month burst in late 2025 linked to the PING token.
- Why Bill Ackman Says He Feels Like “Markets Are Broken” Casinos
On November 3, 2026, Bill Ackman told television that he feels markets are “broken” and resemble casino-type markets with 95% leverage, a figure he presented as his own claim, while arguing the disorder is good for his firm over the long term. He criticized leveraged short-term funds and perpetual futures on individual stocks, which he said contribute to large price moves. Pershing Square's third-quarter letter, dated November 2, blamed volatility on a reduced float from indexation. Ackman is most bullish on Visa, Mastercard and Netflix, and Netflix closed at $63.42, near its $61.39 low. PS's third-quarter revenue of $56.604 million missed the $75.474 million estimate, with no performance fees.
