2:47Jenn Cutter: This is the Daily Tech News Month in Review for May 2026. We're going to look back on the big stories of the month and try to help each other understand what just happened.

2:59This month, we've got Google I.O., the backlash against Google I.O., the debut of the Google Book and the price increases for the Switch 2 and Steam Deck.

3:10Jenn Cutter: I'm Tom Merritt. I'm Jen Kowder. Let's look back on the stories of May 2026. Before we do that, though, we always like to ask an LLM what it thinks the big stories of the month are. This month, I decided to give the prompt to Gemini. I felt like that was appropriate since we're going to be talking a lot about Google stuff this month. I said, we're doing a wrap up for the month of May 2026 of the biggest tech stories of the month. What should we talk about? And it thought we should talk about AI. It is funny, Jen. How often these AIs. Always. Number one story, AI. We should talk about AI. So yeah, its first recommendation was the enterprise AI realignment.

3:54Jenn Cutter: Anthropics, trillion dollar trajectory, enterprise land grab, trying to deploy Claude. Not wrong. Anthropic was a big story this month, for sure. A lot going on there. But I didn't think it was one of the three biggest of the month, did you? It would have been had the month ended right after that happened. Yeah, right. Exactly. To me, it feels more like a background story, like a constant background radiation. We're on top of it, but still not the biggest. Yeah, yeah. Although right at the end of the month, Anthropic leaping ahead of open AI and valuation. They're both pretty much trillion dollar companies at this point.

4:36Jenn Cutter: So that's kind of a meta story. I think that these LLMs sometimes do that. They're looking at a larger trend story versus we are looking at individual items that happened. It did say Google I.O., which we 100 % agree with. We're going to talk about Google I.O. here in a little bit. Then it created one called Hardware Tariffs and Computex Eve, which is just kind of a grab bag of stuff. And Computex technically doesn't begin until June. So personally, to me, it's like, yeah, well, there's some things bubbling out of Computex right at the end of May, like chip announcements from Intel and Qualcomm.

5:11Jenn Cutter: But Computex hasn't started yet. So let's just or it's just started. So let's give that a minute, I think. And then the final one is layoffs, which, again, that one's a reasonable one. There are a lot of layoffs. I consider layoffs also to just be kind of a background drumbeat, you know, and individual layoff stories aren't particularly interesting. Though we did have a good discussion this month about what some of the studies of the effects of tools on layoffs are. And they seem to be exaggerated based on those stories. But there are some important effects on entry level workers. I don't know if that rose to the news level of big story rather versus just being something to understand other stories by knowing.

5:58Yeah, I think it ends up hitting more niche things like for gaming, all the gaming layoffs. You're going to see that have effects in the future as things get delayed, delayed, live services change or get abandoned. You see kind of the effects of Bungie layoffs. Now it's like, yep, Destiny's done, Mall Marathon. And there'd even been some layoffs on that team, too.

6:20Jenn Cutter: Yeah, yeah. In fact, among the things that we were going to talk about that it did not consider would be the Bungie layoffs, SpaceX filing for an IPO, which is kicking off the IPO season for 2026. We'll sort of talk about this later, but Fitbit health tracking app is now called Google Health. That is included in some of the Google News. Meta bringing third-party apps to its display glasses, I think, is a bit significant. A lot of leaks this month from Mark Gurman about what Apple's Siri strategy will be in June. But to me, the real test will be what happens in June at WWDC. I don't know. There's a bunch of other.

7:02Jenn Cutter: Remarkable came out with a new Paper Pure. Amazon moved its shopping assistant, upgraded its shopping assistant in Amazon. There was that Canvas hack. Yeah. That was big at the moment that it happened. Reddit blocking mobile web stops. Oh, and I almost forgot that this month GameStop tried to buy eBay and eBay said no. And then that went away. I do wonder if that one's coming back, but there's only so much to say. It's like, yeah, yeah. If it was still going on or if it was about to happen, I think that makes it a bigger story. But let's start with Google I.O. Google's big theme was agents, agents everywhere.

7:44Jenn Cutter: They are putting agentic features into so many things, including Gemini Spark, which is a personal agent that you can get in Gemini, integrating Gemini into multimodal video generation and editing. Gemini 3.5 Flash, the new flagship model available to everyone. Google's message was essentially, we already have the users, the infrastructure, and the distribution. distribution. So we are going to deploy agents at a planetary scale. I think I was surprised that the biggest takeaway from all of this was the change to the search box. People got very excited, sometimes positively, a lot of times negatively about the idea of there being an AI mode button now in the search box, which just to remind people, all that means is that the AI mode you've had for the past couple of years is now more easily accessible in the search box.

8:39Jenn Cutter: When you're doing a search, you can turn it on right from there. Jen, were you stunned, distraught, enthusiastic over this change? In the moment, I reacted badly. I'm like, oh man, the search is kind of bad enough. And then it went live and I didn't notice. I had to check to see like, did they push this out in Canada? It would just look like, oh there's an extra button and on the left there's a drop down for the different modes i have mostly switched to uh to duck duck go and i'm testing out uh i can't remember do you say kagi or kaji ah kagi yeah yeah yeah so i'm testing out that one too because i'm trying to to broaden my horizon since you know altavista is dead so you know i had to go from that live forever in our memories.

9:27Yeah. But I have not noticed because I do still use Google for some things because I sometimes get lazy and highlight something in Firefox and right click and then I like Google search for it.

9:39Jenn Cutter: Well, it's funny. I think a lot of people, this is one of those things that is way too common these days. Read a headline and then unlike you and I, that's all they know about it. And the headline was Google has changed the search box and now everything is AI. And they said, I don't want to do that anymore. And whether it was reasonably like you evaluating things and saying, you know what, I think I might want to use DuckDuckGo a little more often, or just kind of, you know, lashing out and saying, ah, I need to switch. DuckDuckGo benefited. Installs rose 18.1 % week over week, peaked at 30.5 % on May 25th.

10:17Jenn Cutter: DuckDuckGo does offer AI search, but you can also go to a version of DuckDuckGo that has no AI search at all, which you can do with Google, but DuckDuckGo makes it easier. They have no AI.duckduckgo.com. Like it's super simple. They made it one button. They ask you immediately because yeah, DuckDuckGo is my mobile first browser. That is the only one I use on mobile unless I need a specific thing from another testing thing. But yeah, a lot of people don't really notice. Search is search and there are ways for the motivated people to avoid the AI entirely? Yeah, I honestly haven't noticed a lot of the changes that launched already since Google announced this at IO.

11:03Jenn Cutter: I know some of the agentic stuff isn't coming until June or later this year. And so the ability to say, can you keep an eye on something in a search is something I want to try. I think that'll be really interesting to see how well that does it. But honestly, always these companies over promise in their demonstrations. That's just the way you do PR. And I think that kind of is starting to have a little more backlash than it used to of people upset about a feature that isn't even there yet and honestly probably won't work in the same way that people imagine it will. Well, for YouTube, for the Ask YouTube a Question, and it will tell you which video has it and at what timestamp, I'm really curious how that's going to affect creators.

11:49Because you have a Gemini button under current YouTube videos, and I was testing it on some how-tos. It's really solid. You no longer have to watch the video because it will tell you the actionable steps just straight up in there. So because like a lot of creators will like have chapter markers, but say step one, step two, but not give away what it is. Gemini will just tell you. And so for people who like reading instead of watching, you can now go to YouTube and read.

12:20Jenn Cutter: Yeah. And then the big question, if that becomes a more common habit, which it will for me, too, is YouTube able to credit the creator with that activity in a way that encourages them to continue to make the content? because otherwise then that goes away because everybody just reads it. One other thing, we got a preview of the Android XR display glasses. A few more details about the fact that it's Warby Parker and Gentle Monster that are going to create the styles for the audio versions. And we got to see the preview of those styles there. Xreal came out with something that is a more budget version of its tethered display glasses.

13:04Jenn Cutter: that's not directly related to Android XR, but they are working on Project Aura with Google about that. So it kind of points the way towards that as well. So not a lot about around the smart display stuff, but Google saying like, hey, stay tuned later this year because we are going to have a lot probably in the autumn. Yeah. And you like Gentle Monster, as I recall. I do. Yeah. I went to a Gentle Monster. I'm traveling this week in Las Vegas, went to a Gentle Monster here at one of the malls. They always have a really interesting shop. They always have great styles. They are a little pricey. That would be my knock on them.

13:37Jenn Cutter: Warby Parker is going to be your alternative if you're like me. Like, man, I really like the looks of those. I don't know that I want to buy them at that price. But yeah, I think they have really good looking glasses. Very cool. All right. That is only our first topic. Hang on. There's more.

17:14Jenn Cutter: We are going to continue in the Google vein because Google does a smart thing now by running the Android show IO edition one week before. for Google I.O. And this week or this week, this year at the Google Android show, they are positioning Android as an intelligence system, not an operating system anymore, Jen. It's an intelligence system. Do we need to refer to it as an I.S. now, Google?

17:43Jenn Cutter: Yeah, this is just a way of them saying what I think we're going to hear from Apple with I.O.S. in June. we have put a lot of the large language model smarts agentic smarts into android and it's going to be launching first on the pixel 10 and the galaxy s 26 from samsung this summer so this is again the kind of thing where you're getting sneak previews into features you might be able to download and do some as a beta if you're if you want to but most people aren't going to see them until later this year and they include the kind of agentic things that were very similar to what we were hearing with search multi-step app automations cleaning up voice input in real time uh you can generate your own widgets you can say i want a widget that does this and it'll generate it which could be incredibly useful uh auto fill into multi-field forms which i know to to us who've been doing this for a long time sounds like yeah i've had that since 2001 but uh the idea is that you you don't have to do as much work to get the auto fill to work right because it'll just know from your emails and stuff what it needs to fill in.

18:45Jenn Cutter: So it'll work better. Chrome getting a browsing assistant with integrated Nano Banana and auto-browse coming late in June. So you can tell it what to look for and it'll be able to find it for you. And then some changes to the Material 3 expressive UI. But I think the big announcement that caught everybody's attention was Google Book, which is their aluminum OS-based laptop that is going to fill in the gap above Chrome OS. Google was kind of sketchy about whether they're going to replace Chrome OS, retire Chrome OS. All they would say is like, we are going to continue to support Chrome OS, but it didn't say whether it would continue to develop it.

19:28Jenn Cutter: And they really are trying to get everyone onto the Google Book platform. It is an Android-powered laptop operating system with the ability to compete at the MacBook Neo level, which is something we're seeing also from Qualcomm with Windows and their C chip that they just announced. Everybody wants to move into that MacBook Neo space, but native Android app support, so not emulation. Anything that's on Android, you can use on this. Direct phone file access, so you can connect it to your smartphone and drag things back and forth. It has a little glow bar design on the case. I don't know if that does anything, honestly, but it looks cool.

20:07Jenn Cutter: And we are going to start seeing these from Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, and Lenovo. So something that is more competitive with a base model Windows machine in its ability to, you know, work with productivity apps versus the Chrome OS, which could do all that stuff, but it's much more browser-based. And as much as you can use Android stuff, which I do, It's just a little more clunky. Yeah, I read all this stuff by my mom because she is the big Android user and she is now the one teaching my dad how to use it. So that saves me a lot of problems. I asked her like, hey, is this a thing you would be interested in?

20:46Because like your laptop died several months ago. And she's like, it's cool, but I already bought like a cheap Android tablet and that does all of the things I need it to do. It already does email and my phone handles all the rest. And she likes using her phone. The widget thing is the thing she's most excited about. Because she's like, oh, if I can just say. On her Android phone. On her Android phone. She's like, okay, if I can just say, hey, I want you to give me heads up about these things in my golf app on just like my lock screen or something. So she doesn't have to open it. She can just like look at it on her golf bag because she's crazy good at golf and is really serious about it.

21:24But like that thing is like she's genuinely excited for it. And my mom does not get terribly excited about tech.

21:32Jenn Cutter: Yeah, and that is the kind of thing that just appeals to you, whether you're into tweaking things or anything. Whereas the Google book, I think, is a little bit harder to wrap your brain around unless you need it. Unless you're looking at a model and looking at a price point and comparing it to, well, I could buy this HP Windows laptop or I could buy the MacBook Neo. But this seems to suit what I want to do. there was a lot of talk about like oh is this going to throw you know chrome os users uh out and and they're trying to force everyone to buy a google book it doesn't seem like that it seems like they want to continue to support chrome os whether they will continue to sell it uh you know and continue to to push manufacturers to make chromebooks i doubt it seems like what they'd really like people to do is make google books because they're they're more functional uh there's more you could do with them.

22:22Easier for them not to split it. I was like, I watched the educational space for things like this. And after the MacBook Neo, I'm not going to say like all of the school boards switched, but enough to make the news that they're like, yep, we're retiring these and going to these. And I want to see, will some schools that are updating later go for this versus the MacBook Neo?

22:44Jenn Cutter: Yeah, I think that's a really good space to keep an eye on. All right, that's two of the three or four if you're a patron. So hold, please, for the next big item of the May Tech scene.

24:33Oh, my goodness. My goodness. Price hikes, they're everywhere. And two big ones came to the section near and dear to my heart for consoles. The Switch 2 price is going to raise in September. It's in September, September 1st. You technically have time to take advantage. Because in the U.S., it's rising 50 bucks from$449.99 to$499.99. In Canada, it'll go from$629.99 to$679.99. And in Europe, it's going to go from€469.99 to€499.99. And it just, it hurts. It makes you feel better about buying it at launch, which I had been really hesitant about. But now I feel like a genius between that. But it is like the console.

25:22I spent$110 to get the Pro 2 controller. That's going to say the same price. So that's nice.

25:29Jenn Cutter: Yeah, it's interesting to see the accessories hold the price. and the main one get the price increase because different companies are taking different strategies on that sort of thing. And then we have Valve. This is the one that hurts for the PC gamers. So it came back in stock for about 30 seconds and then disappeared again. So congrats to those people who got it the old price because the 512 gig version of the OLED is now$789 up from$549. and the one terabyte is up from$6.49 to$9.49. And yeah, it's sold out again. So good luck for people who are going to get it on the new prices. In Canada, it really hurts because it went from like the OLED model, the base one went from$11.29.

26:17It's now$11.29, sorry. And the one terabyte is$13.49, which is why I have never talked about it because this was just well out of my range. even for the base ones, because the base ones were about$650 and the higher end one was$850. And it was sold out when I got the Switch 2. So I just went for the Switch 2 and I have been extremely happy with it. I play it at least six days a week. So that worked out for me. But like, oh my goodness, this is such an investment now. And I can't imagine what the Steam machine that we all thought was going to be coming sooner than later. What is that going to cost?

26:53Jenn Cutter: Yeah, it's going to be ridiculous, which is why they haven't put it out yet. I think they're trying to figure out how to make the price as low as possible, but it's going to be high no matter what. And there's so many things that are ongoing trends that are at play here. There are tariffs involved that just make the supply chain complex, even if you're not in the United States. There's the fact that memory is impossible to get because there are so many data centers being built that all the manufacturing lines are being devoted to making the chips for those data centers. I think that that's something that gets lost in the discussion of that is it's not that the data centers are buying up all the chips.

27:38Jenn Cutter: It's worse than that. It's that they're buying up the capacity to make the chips, which means that it's harder for a manufacturer to justify devoting capacity to making the kinds of stuff that goes into a Steam Deck or a Switch 2, which means you have to pay them more to make it worth their while to do it. It's just demand is off the charts. I don't know how long this is going to continue to happen. There are other inflationary pressures happening as well, just related to world events. and anything inflationary, once it goes up, it rarely comes down. I don't expect to see the switch come back down.

28:17Jenn Cutter: I could see a world where if the data center boom starts to ease and the chip prices start to come back down, I could see Valve being a little more price sensitive in its pricing and giving you a discount in the future. I'm not saying I expect the pressure to release. So I'm not saying expect a price decrease. None of us are putting this in stone. This is a hypothetical. If that were to happen, I would imagine Valve might adjust its price. I don't expect Nintendo to. I think they really are only changing that price when they feel they absolutely have to, and it's a long-term price change. Yeah, the price changes for Japan are already in effect.

28:54They announced it, and boom, it was there. It's so weird to think about. My PS5 is worth more secondhand if I sold it right now than when I bought it. I can make a profit off my PS5. And that's crazy. Is Sony going to raise their prices before Q4? Will Microsoft raise their prices? I feel like it's going to depend on their inventory or if they feel they could get away with it and make more money off their current inventory knowing they're going to sell less for units they

29:25Jenn Cutter: have to construct in the future yeah i mean sony did raise the price uh on april 2nd uh so the question is are they gonna raise it again yeah yeah and it's a worry and like could you announce a new console in this market uh with everybody kind of looking at these prices going up and off if you announce the new console is it going to be ready do you have it do you have enough is this going to be a shorted situation again where you know they sell four in each country and then it's gone. No, absolutely. That was a problem with the PlayStation launch before, right? Yeah, I had to wait. I waited a while.

30:01I got mine only a couple of years ago, which was well after launch. Yeah.

30:05Jenn Cutter: I wonder if it changes the emphasis. The emphasis on consoles has generally been power. It can do more. It can make your game look better. I don't expect that a company is not going to want to be able to say that, but how much more, maybe less, if they can make the price better, if they can say and there's no price increase that's probably one of the biggest things they can say to the market right now and sony went from uh trying to do some games on pc to being like nope changed their minds uh we're only doing console for uh for any like big titles so buy a console or you're out of luck yeah no and that came with the change of the guard at microsoft right as soon as microsoft stopped applying the pressure to sony uh for compatibility sony was like great we don't want to do that.

30:53Jenn Cutter: We never wanted to do that. So we're going to, we're going to back off on that now. Yep. You know, this story is coming back, so we'll keep an eye on it.
