What new Google creative tools were released?

On September 24, The Daily AI Show opened with the week’s top AI news, spanning healthcare, chip innovation, commerce, and creative industries. The panel of Jimmy, Beth, and Andy highlighted breakthroughs in AI-driven bloodwork, Nvidia’s massive deal with OpenAI, Google’s new commerce push, Microsoft’s cooling tech, and Alibaba’s sweeping release of open-source models.

Key Points Discussed

• University of Waterloo develops an AI model that uses routine bloodwork to predict spinal cord injury recovery and mortality, promising fast triage and broader hospital access.

• Nvidia commits $100 billion to OpenAI via non-voting shares, tied to OpenAI buying up to 10 gigawatts of Nvidia chips—a circular deal raising antitrust questions.

• Google partners with PayPal, Amex, and Mastercard to launch agent-driven commerce through Chrome, signaling a coming wave of frictionless AI purchases.

• Microsoft unveils microfluidic cooling for chips, cutting energy use threefold with designs inspired by leaves and butterfly wings.

• Alibaba releases its Qwen3 model family, including trillion-parameter leaders and specialized variants for translation, coding, travel planning, safety, and more.

• Attention Labs debuts tech enabling AI to participate naturally in multi-speaker conversations, raising the possibility of true AI co-hosts.

• Google launches Gemini Live, a native audio model for smoother real-time voice interaction, and “Mixed Board,” a vision-board-style generative tool.

• Creative AI takes the spotlight: the Hux app turns inboxes and calendars into interactive AI-hosted podcasts, while the AI series “Whispers” and the AI musician Zenia Monet land major deals, pushing debates on transparency and artistry.
