YouTube is getting more of Google's AI tools. One of these features is being integrated into the Ask YouTube feature. This function has existed in the past, allowing users to ask Gemini questions about specific videos on the listing page. However, its newest iteration brings Ask YouTube to the search box.

RedMagic just debuted its newest powerful gaming phone in China, and it's getting an international release soon. The RedMagic 11S Pro, which T3 noted is an overclocked version of the 11 Pro, runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and the company's RedCore R4 gaming processor. To ensure these chips run smoothly, RedMagic equipped the phone with a cooling system it calls AquaCore. The company pairs it with a 24,000rpm TurboFan, through-channel airflow design, a vapour chamber, and liquid metal technology.

Google is taking another stab at smart glasses, but this time they're calling them "intelligent eyewear." The first iteration of this revived smart glasses line will be audio glasses made in collaboration with Samsung and Qualcomm, at least for the hardware side. On the design front, Google is working with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker.
Tapping the side of the frames will provide instant access to Gemini. You can inquire about what you see, get turn-by-turn directions, answer calls and send texts, and take photos and videos, among others. Basically, Google is reviving its glasses project and is taking cues from Meta's success with its smart glasses. The company hasn't revealed when the glasses will be released, but we anticipate updates in the "coming months."

A new Android feature called Pause Point hopes to help you stay off apps you find "distracting" or those that make it easy to doomscroll. When you indicate or label an app as distracting, Pause Point will require you to pause for 10 seconds each time you open the app to help deter mindless scrolling (if that's why you wanted to open it in the first place).
Aside from trying to dissuade you from doomscrolling, Pause Point can even be set to suggest other "healthier" alternatives, like your favourite fitness or audiobook apps, your favourite photos or even a simple breathing exercise. Pause Point requires you to restart your phone to turn the feature off, adding an extra resistance layer for getting into these distracting apps.
