Google alerts about text scam
Google issued a global warning about a text scam that says, “Do You Remember Me?” Experts say the scam targets billions of people. The message tricks users into clicking links that look safe but steal bank account details. Google urged users to be careful and avoid suspicious links.
Gemini 3.0 impresses several
While the scam spreads, Google is also in the spotlight for its new AI model, Gemini 3.0. Salesforce CEO Mark Benioff announced he would stop using ChatGPT, which he used every day for three years. After using Gemini 3.0 for two hours, he said it is faster and more powerful in reasoning, image creation, and video. Benioff shared on X: “Holy shit. I’ve used ChatGPT every day for 3 years. Just spent 2 hours on Gemini 3. I’m not going back. The leap is insane — reasoning, speed, images, video… everything is sharper and faster. It feels like the world just changed, again.” Google CEO Sundar Pichai called Gemini 3 the company’s “most intelligent model,” saying it combines all Gemini features to help users turn ideas into reality. The model is seen as a major improvement in AI technology.
Tech leaders react to AI competition
Other technology leaders also responded. Elon Musk congratulated Pichai on the Gemini 3 launch and praised DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said Google’s model looks impressive but added that it may create “temporary economic headwinds.” Altman said OpenAI is strong enough to face competition and is focused on reaching advanced AI capabilities in the long term.
AI growth and user caution
The Gemini 3 launch shows the rapid growth of AI tools and the rising competition among tech companies. At the same time, scams like “Do You Remember Me?” highlight the risks users face online. Experts say users must be careful with messages and links while companies continue developing faster and smarter AI systems.
