Popular battle royale game Fortnite has finally returned to the U.S. App Store amid game maker Epic Games’ lengthy legal skirmish with Apple. As of Tuesday, Fortnite is also available on the Epic Games Store and AltStore in the EU. It’ll show up in App Store searches soon, Epic said in a post on X. Apple removed Fortnite from the App Store in 2020 after Epic added an option for people to make in-game purchases using Epic’s virtual currency, for which the company offered a 20% discount. Epic then went on the offensive and sued Apple. A judge ruled in Epic’s favor, finding that Apple was in “willful violation” of rules that bar anticompetitive pricing. Last month, that judge said Apple must allow developers to collect payments outside the App Store and not levy fees on them. Following the ruling, Epic resubmitted Fortnite to the App Store — but faced an approval delay. The company accused Apple of blocking the game from going live in the U.S. and EU. Earlier this week, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said in a filing that Apple should approve Epic’s submission or show it had a legal basis to block it. That possibly tilted things in Epic’s favor.

Luminar, the lidar company founded by recently replaced CEO Austin Russell, is going through another restructuring, according to a recent regulatory filing. This new round of layoffs, which the company did not provide figures for, follows extensive cuts to the workforce in 2024. Luminar cut about 30% of its workforce in 2024, a reduction that was expected to cost $4 million to $6 million in additional cash charges. Some of those layoffs spilled into the first quarter of 2025. A total of 212 employees were laid off. In its latest regulatory filing, the company said it began additional layoffs May 15. These new layoffs are expected to cost $4 million to $5 million in cash charges. These costs are expected to be incurred in the second and third quarters of this year. The layoffs are the latest complication for Luminar. Earlier this month, the company’s board replaced Russell as CEO and board chair. The board issued a press release saying he resigned as the result of an ethics inquiry without providing any additional information. Luminar’s board replaced Russell and appointed Paul Ricci to the role. Ricci is the former chairman and CEO of Nuance. A day after the leadership change was announced, board member Jun Hong Heng also resigned, according to a regulatory filing, which stated his decision was not due to any disagreements with the company on any matter relating to the company’s operations, policies, or practices. The company has not responded to requests for comment. Russell became a billionaire after his lidar startup Luminar went public in 2021 after the company merged with special purpose acquisition company Gores Metropoulos Inc., with a post-deal market valuation of $3.4 billion. Luminar raised $250 million prior to the SPAC announcement.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin said he “made a lot of mistakes with Google Glass” during an onstage interview at Google I/O 2025 on Tuesday. Brin was a surprise addition to an interview with Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis conducted by Big Technology Podcast’s Alex Kantrowitz. Brin went on to say he “didn’t know anything about consumer electronic supply chains,” or how difficult it would be to build smart glasses at a reasonable price point. The Google co-founder noted he’s a big believer in the form factor of smart glasses, and said he’s glad the company is pursuing them yet again, this time with “great partners who are helping us build this.” Earlier on Tuesday, Google unveiled its latest effort to develop Android XR smart glasses, roughly a decade after the Google Glass project shut down. Onstage, Google leaders showcased how their smart glasses, powered by DeepMind’s Project Astra, could assist with live translations, directions, and generally AI queries. To develop Android XR glasses with AI and AR capabilities, Google is working with a network of partners, such as Samsung and Xreal. Google is also investing up to $150 million in a partnership with Warby Parker, and taking an equity stake in the eyewear company, to support its smart glasses efforts. As Brin referenced, those experienced eyewear and electronics makers may be able to help with some of the supply chain problems associated with producing smart glasses. Brin noted how the advent of generative AI makes the capabilities of smart glasses much more tangible than when Google Glass was around. Earlier in the interview, Brin acknowledged how he’s effectively come out of retirement to work on Google’s Gemini efforts. The Google co-founder says he’s in the Mountain View, California office nearly every day, and says he’s helping the Gemini team with multimodal projects, such as Google’s video-generating model Veo 3. “Anybody who’s a computer scientist should not be retired right now,” said Brin. “They should be working on AI.” Techcrunch event Join us at TechCrunch Sessions: AI Secure your spot for our leading AI industry event with speakers from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cohere.

Berkeley, CA | June 5 REGISTER NOW Previous reports have suggested that Brin has pushed Google’s Gemini teams quite aggressively to compete in the AI race. Reportedly, Brin told Google employees in a memo they should be in the office at least every weekday, and that working 60 hours a week is likely the sweet spot for productivity.

Google says it will commit up to $150 million to the consumer eyewear company Warby Parker to jointly develop AI-powered smart glasses based on Android XR, the companies said on Tuesday during Google I/O 2025. Google has already committed $75 million to Warby Parker’s product development and commercialization costs, the companies said in a press release. Google says it will invest an additional $75 million, taking an equity stake in Warby Parker, should the eyewear manufacturer meet certain milestones. At Google I/O 2025, Google also announced partnerships with several companies to develop smart glasses with Gemini AI and AR capabilities, including Samsung and Gentle Monster. Google seems to be taking a page out of Meta’s smart glasses strategy. Meta has found success partnering and investing in the Ray-Ban maker EssilorLuxottica to develop its smart glasses. Part of the reason behind Ray-Ban Meta’s success is that the smart glasses have an attractive, familiar design and they’re being sold in Ray-Ban stores. It seems likely that Google will have a similar relationship with Warby Parker, taking advantage of the eyewear company’s popular frame designs and perhaps its retail stores. In the press release, Warby Parker and Google said they intend to launch a series of products over time. Their first line of eyewear will launch “after 2025” and will incorporate multimodal AI with prescription and non-prescription glasses.

Amanda Scales, the former xAI HR exec who helped lead billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative while working at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, recently returned to xAI, according to The New York Times. Scales used to work on talent acquisition at xAI. Since April, she’s worked on the talent side of the company once again, per her LinkedIn profile. Previously, Scales was in human resources and talent at San Francisco-based VC firm Human Capital, as well as at Uber. Scales’ return to xAI comes as Musk has indicated that he plans to pull back from DOGE. The tech billionaire has made himself increasingly scarce in Washington, according to the Times. Last month, Musk told Wall Street analysts that he planned to spend less time on politics and more on his companies like Tesla. Sales at Tesla have suffered since Musk devoted more time and resources to DOGE. Last month, a group of employees published an open letter calling for his removal as CEO.

The first test of Tesla’s long-promised robotaxi service in Austin, Texas next month will initially be limited to specific areas the company deems “the safest,” CEO Elon Musk told CNBC in an interview Tuesday. Tesla’s cars are “not going to take intersections unless we are highly confident [they’re] going to do well with that intersection, or it’ll just take a route around that intersection,” Musk said. “We’re going to be extremely paranoid about the deployment, as we should be. It would be foolish not to be.” Using a geofence represents a major strategy shift for Musk, who spent years claiming his company would be able to create a general purpose self-driving solution that could be dropped in to any location and work without human supervision. (Geofence is a jargon term used in the autonomous vehicle industry that means vehicle is restricted to a certain area.) Musk has claimed Tesla will attempt to launch similar trials for its robotaxi service in California and possibly other states later this year. Musk telegraphed the idea of using a geofence on Tesla’s first-quarter earnings call in April, though he did not explicitly say that was the approach the company would use. The CEO said at the time that it was “increasingly likely that there will be a localized parameter set” for its early robotaxi operations. As part of Tesla’s “paranoid” approach, Musk said Tuesday the company will have employees remotely monitor the initial fleet of around 10 Model Y SUVs equipped with the “unsupervised” version of its Full Self-Driving software. Musk also claimed those vehicles will be driving without any safety operator inside. “I think it’s prudent for us to start with a small number, confirm that things are going well, and then scale it up proportionate to how well we see it’s doing,” he said. It is common practice for autonomous vehicle companies like Waymo to have an operations center staffed with people who are monitoring their robotaxis and providing remote guidance, if needed. Waymo, which posted a blog on the topic in 2024, doesn’t take take control of the vehicles though. Instead human employees primarily communicate through questions and answers with the self-driving system to give it proper context and help it problem solve.

Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan continues to consider ways to help semiconductor giant refocus on its core business. Intel is allegedly considering selling its networking and edge unit, according to reporting to Reuters, as Tan looks to shed business divisions that aren’t considered critical. This unit builds makes chips for telecom equipment and was responsible for $5.8 billion of revenue in 2024. Intel has started engaging with potential buyers but has not launched a formal sales process, Reuters reported. If Intel does end up pursuing a sale, it wouldn’t be surprising. Tan has made it clear that he wants the company to refocus on its core business units — PCs and data center chips. In March, Tan told Intel’s customers that the company would spin off its non-core assets at the company’s Intel Vision conference. TechCrunch has reached out to Intel for more information.

Google announced new features for Wear OS 6 at Google I/O 2025 today, giving the operating system a design makeover with Material 3 Expressive, the design language the company unveiled earlier this month. Google released the developer preview of Wear OS 6, which is based on Android 16, for testing on Tuesday. With Wear OS 6, Google is trying to make apps look more cohesive, so app tiles will adopt the default system font. Plus, the dynamic theming library will adjust your app or tile’s color to match the color scheme of the watch face on Pixel Watches. The core promise of the new design reference platform is to let developers build better customization in apps along with seamless transitions. The company is releasing a design guideline for developers along with Figma design files. In addition, Google is releasing The Wear Compose Material 3 and brand-new Wear Protolayout libraries for developers with extended color schemes, typography, and shapes for more dynamic-looking apps. Image Credits: Google To match the circular look of a Wear OS 6 watch, Google is introducing a three-slot tile layout with a title slot, a main content slot, and a bottom slot that would make for a consistent look across different-sized screens. The company is also adding newly designed components, including buttons, progress indicators, and scroll indicators, to better suit circular watch displays. Developers can display collapsing components for scrolling in different ways. For instance, components can scale down when they near the top or bottom of a watch’s screen.

Plus, there is now a new API to build watch marketplaces. Image Credits: Google Google is adding a CredentialManager API to Wear OS, starting with Pixel Watches on Wear OS 5.1, which will enable passkey authentication through the watch. Wear OS 5.1 on Pixel also gets richer media controls that allow users to fast-forward or rewind podcasts. What’s more, compatible apps will also get a new menu for playlist and controls, including shuffle, “like,” and repeat.

Google announced at Google IO 2025 that it is adding multiple AI-powered features for online shoppers, including a new visual panel in Google Search’s AI Mode, personalized price tracking notifications with agentic checkout, and virtual try-ons. The new shopping experience is rolling out in AI Mode, where shoppers can view product visuals and other AI-powered guidance that leverages product data. For instance, if you search for a travel bag, the results will show you a panel of listings and images matched to your tastes that you can easily scroll through. And, if you want to narrow things down using a more specific query, such as “bags suitable for a trip to Portland, Oregon, in May,” AI Mode will run multiple simultaneous queries — which Google describes as a query “fan-out” — to figure out the best option for both long journeys and rainy weather. Image Credits: Google It will then update the panel of options to showcase those that are waterproof and those with easy access to pockets. As you continue to refine your query or add other specific filters for shopping, the visual panel on the right-hand will update to show new options. These features will arrive in the U.S. in the months ahead, says Google. The company is also adding a new price tracking feature with agentic checkout in the months ahead. Soon, consumers will be able to tap “track price” on any Google product listing. You’ll then be able to select a product, filtering for things like colors and size, and specify the amount they want to spend on that item.

After confirming the details, you can opt to buy the item by tapping a new “buy for me” option. After clicking the buy button, Google adds the item to the checkout cart on the merchant’s website and uses your Google Pay details to secure the purchase. This feature will initially launch with product listings in the U.S., Google says. Another new feature will allow shoppers to try on clothes virtually. While Google has offered something similar to virtual on tech, the feature only involved showing items on a diverse range of models’ bodies. Now, the company will allow you to try on clothes on yourself, too. To do so, you’ll upload a full-length photo under good lighting where you’re wearing fitted clothing. Google says it’s using a new diffusion model for fashion to understand the human body and how different materials would fold and stretch on different people. Image Credits: Google Google’s virtual try-on feature is available to users in the U.S. under Google’s Search Labs starting today. Users who opt in will see a virtual try-on button next to product listings for shirts, pants, skirts, and dresses. You’ll also be able to share your look with friends or tap to shop similar style. Google’s range of new AI shopping technology will challenge the work of other startups to various degrees. Notably, companies like Thrive-backed Doji and Stellation Capital-backed Vybe are working on technology to make virtual try-on easy and fun for users. Meanwhile, startups like Daydream, Cherry, and Deft have used AI to solve for product discovery. Plus, general-purpose AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT and Perplexity have also added shopping features in recent months.

Google announced at Google I/O 2025 on Tuesday that it’s launching a Gemini integration in Chrome. The tech giant says the new integration will give users access to a new AI browsing assistant that will help them quickly understand the context of a page and get tasks done. Gemini in Chrome will be accessible through typing or talking with Gemini Live. You can start chatting with the AI assistant by clicking the Gemini icon in the top right corner of your Chrome window. At launch, the integration will allow users to ask Gemini to clarify complex information on a page that they’re visiting. It will also be able to summarize information. Image Credits:Google For example, you could open up a page that features a banana bread recipe and ask Gemini to make the recipe gluten free. Or, you could use Gemini to help you pick out the perfect plan for your bedroom depending on the lighting conditions. Another use case could be asking Gemini to create a pop quiz based on the topics covered in the webpage you’re visiting. Starting Wednesday, Gemini in Chrome will begin rolling out on desktop to Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. who use English as their Chrome language on Windows and macOS. It will also be available to Chrome Beta, Dev, and Canary users. The idea behind the feature is to give users easy access to Gemini right in Chrome, since Google is likely looking for ways to get people to use Gemini instead of OpenAI’s ChatGPT for these kinds of questions, inquiries, and summaries. Image Credits:Google In the future, Gemini in Chrome will be able to work across multiple tabs at once. This means that you could get Gemini to do things like compare two different sleeping bags that you have open on separate tabs. Gemini in Chrome will also be able to navigate websites on your behalf. For example, you could ask Gemini to scroll to a specific portion of a recipe with a single command.

At Google I/O 2025, the tech giant unveiled new capabilities coming to NotebookLM, its AI-based note-taking and research assistant. Most notably, the company is launching Video Overviews. The company says users will soon be able to turn dense multimedia, such as raw notes, PDFs, and images, into digestible visual presentations. Since its launch, NotebookLM has been about helping users understand and interact with complex documents. With this new capability, NotebookLM will be taking a more visual approach to helping users understand different topics and ideas. NotebookLM has already taken an audio approach to helping users understand materials with Audio Overviews, a feature that gives users the ability to generate a podcast with AI virtual hosts based on documents they have shared with NotebookLM, such as course readings or legal briefs. Image Credits:Google Now, Google is rolling out more flexibility to Audio Overviews, as it’s letting users select the ideal length for their audio summaries. For example, you can choose to have an Audio Overview at the default length, or longer or shorter. The new features announced today come a day after Google officially released NotebookLM apps for Android and iOS. Up until now, NotebookLM has only been accessible via desktop. Google has now made the service available on the go. The apps feature background playback and offline support for Audio Overviews, along with support for dark mode. The apps also allow people to create new notebooks and view the ones they’ve already created. Plus, when you’re viewing a website, PDF, or YouTube video on your device, you can tap the share icon and select NotebookLM to add it as a new source. Users can also view sources that they have already uploaded in each of the notebooks.

Google is taking on Meta’s Ray-Ban Meta glasses by announcing new partnerships at Google I/O 2025 with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker to create smart glasses based on Android XR. Google launched the Android XR platform with Qualcomm and Samsung last year. While it didn’t talk about specific devices then, the latest announcement indicates the company wants to build multiple iterations of glasses and headsets with different partners. On Tuesday, the company also said it would expand its partnership with Samsung to XR glasses. It added that both companies are developing a software and a hardware reference platform for developers to build solutions on. Samsung, Qualcomm, and Google announced a mixed reality project in 2023. Samsung subsequently unveiled a headset, Project Moohan, in late 2024. It’s set to debut later this year, Google says. At I/O, Google also showed off concept glasses based on the Android XR platform augmented by its Gemini AI. The glasses have a camera, a microphone, and speakers, just like the Ray-Ban Meta glasses.

Google on Tuesday announced a new AI-powered video tool geared towards filmmaking called Flow at its Google I/O 2025 developer conference. The company said it’s using a trio of its AI models — Veo for video generation, Imagen for image generation, and Gemini for text and prompting — to power the new tool. Flow is following the footsteps of other tools by letting users import characters or scenes, or let them create those artifacts within the tool. For instance, Google itself launched a video generation tool called VideoFX last year under Google Labs. Flow, however, may be able to reach a wider user base. The new tool also offers features like camera control, to change the angle of a camera or a view within the scene; a scene builder to edit or extend shots and direct the flow of the scene; as well as tools for asset management. Plus, the company is launching “Flow TV,” a curated stream of clips and content where others can see exact prompts behind these videos to understand other users’ creative flows. Startups like Moonvalley, D-ID, Cheehoo, and Hedra have also been trying to create video solutions in similar realms to help people have access to certain filmmaking tools to create AI-generated features. While Google’s models are present in a lot of these tools, Flow demonstrates that Google also wants to enter the application layer of the AI-video generation process. Flow will initially be available to users in the U.S. on Google AI Pro and the new Google AI Ultra plan.

Google announced at Google I/O 2025 that it is making the AI model that powers its experimental music production app, MusicFX DJ, available via an API. The model, Lyria RealTime, is now in Google’s Gemini API and AI Studio platform. It can mix musical genres, change instruments, and alter the mood of AI-generated music, giving users control over the key, tempo, brightness, and other song characteristics and elements. Image Credits:Google DeepMind The launch of Lyria RealTime via API comes amidst an explosion of AI-powered music apps. There’s Udio and Suno, as well as the recently debuted Riffusion — among many others. Many of these have proven to be controversial, particularly those driven by models trained on copyrighted music without permission. But Google pitches Lyria RealTime as a collaborative tool — one that can be used to interactively create, control, and even perform high-quality (48kHz stereo) songs. Google didn’t announce pricing for Lyria RealTime ahead of its API rollout.
