  • Google has revealed a search engine version powered by generative AI.
  • Astra uses phone cameras and AI for real-time object recognition, finding items, identifying sounds and more.
  • While project Astra represents a significant leap in AI integration, AI coins are still bleeding.

Google announces Astra

Google has revealed Astra, a new search engine version that is powered by generative AI. The tool uses a phone camera and AI for real-time object recognition, finding items, identifying sounds and more. Specifically, the AI assistant uses camera input to identify objects, recognize sounds and recall previous observations. This advancement aims to integrate AI more seamlessly into everyday life.

Beyond Google, OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT is also set to announce a new market competitor against Google, Reuters reports, citing sources close to the matter. Bloomberg reported that the new search engine tool would be an extension of ChatGPT, adding that it will make it possible for ChatGPT to pull in direct information from the Web and include citations.

Despite the Google announcement, however, AI crypto coins refuse to rally, with CoinGecko data showing sector tokens in the red. However, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) market capitalization today is $29.8 billion, a 14.8% change in the last 24 hours.

Micron's $4.5 billion Taiwan fab won't make a chip until 2028 — the market sold it as a 2026 problemMicron fell 17.46% to $656.39 after Bloomberg reported construction at its $4.5 billion Taoyuan Fab 11E had all but halted over a labor dispute. The plant was not due online until 2028, so no 2026 output is lost. With FY27 EPS consensus near $160 and 2027 HBM sold out, the selloff is a peak-cycle multiple reset, not a demand collapse — and $650 is the line that separates the two.
