| I guess it will be running Google's new operating system (a "modern OS designed for Intelligence") that combines elements of Android and ChromeOS. Edit: Probably Android at the core, and then a desktop-grade Chrome browser on top. |

| ▲ | idle_zealot 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Why does this entire page read like an LLM wrote it in response to "Imagine Google is making a new desktop operating system built on Android. It's focused on total app compatibility, parity with the Apple ecosystem, Linux development and power users, and deep AI integration. Write the promo page for this operating system."? Also > Intelligent Window Management
The OS learns your workflow patterns and proactively arranges windows, prepares files, and opens apps before you ask. Bleh. Edit: Oh, it is that. A fan decided to make an LLM write a promo page assuming the role of Google marketing for an unreleased, unannounced project and make up all the details. | |

| Yeah, this is the one. Android in a desktop form-factor. |

| Wouldn't it be Fuchsia? |
| |
| ▲ | troymc 17 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | Fuchsia ended up in some Google products, such as Nest Hub, Nest Hub Max, and Google's smart speakers, thermostats and displays. But Fuchsia won't be in the Googlebook because there's no Chrome browser for Fuchsia. (In early 2024, Google officially stopped trying to port the full, desktop version of Chrome to Fuchsia.) | |
| ▲ | llm_nerd 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | The dream of Fuchsia is effectively dead, and aside from some older Nest devices, Google only remaining efforts with the OS is basically as a tiny runtime that they'll run in VMs on Android for some secure process needs. It was just a speculative research project and a bunch of bloggers went wild declaring it the end of Android, Linux (Android of course sitting on Linux), ChromeOS, etc. That was never real. | | |
| ▲ | raggi 35 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | 45 commits landed in the repository so far today, it's mid way through the work day in the valley. https://fuchsia-review.googlesource.com/q/status:merged Zircon is still under development with recent RFC's extending the memory synchronization and attribution model for processes. There was also more extension added to one of the key disk formats in March which has an eye to more flexible long term evolution and adaptation to particular device form factors. The publicly available evidence does nothing to support your claims, entirely the opposite. I used to work on Fuchsia, I have not for many years now and have no idea what their current roadmap looks like, but I do know where to actually look up what's been done recently, which is all public and you could do as well. Anyway I have no idea if this has any fuchsia code in it. | |
| ▲ | strongpigeon an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | Calling it "just a speculative research project" is severely underestimating how big of an effort Fuschia was. At its peak it had a couple hundred eng IIRC. |
