Google to Launch Aluminium OS
Google is making a new computer operating system called Aluminium OS.
This system will combine Android, which is used in phones, and ChromeOS, which is used in Chromebooks.
Google wants this new system to work well on different devices like laptops, tablets, and small computers.
The system will also use Google's AI technology called Gemini to make it smarter.
Google has been working on this for a while and has partnered with Qualcomm to make it happen.
The new system is expected to launch next year, and it will compete with other computer systems like Windows and macOS.
Google says ChromeOS will still be around, but it will use the same technology as Aluminium OS.
Google is launching Aluminium OS, a new desktop operating system that merges Android and ChromeOS.
The OS is expected to launch in 2026, possibly at Google I/O 2026.
Aluminium OS will support various device form factors including laptops, tablets, detachables, and mini PCs.
The new OS will integrate Google's AI technology, Gemini, to provide a smarter user experience.
ChromeOS will continue to exist but will run on the same underlying technology as Aluminium OS.
