Android 18 Could Ban Battery-Draining Apps From the Play Store

Google is planning to implement stricter efficiency requirements for third-party applications with the launch of Android 18 in 2027.

The focus will be on reducing battery drain, device overheating, memory consumption, background resource abuse, and improving overall system performance. If enforced, these changes could lead to longer battery life, reduced heating issues, faster performance, and improved reliability for users.

OpenAI Tests Ads in ChatGPT Android Beta, Sparking Privacy Fears

OpenAI is testing advertising features in the beta version of the ChatGPT Android app, indicating a shift towards monetization to diversify revenue streams amid rising operational costs. Leaked code suggests features like “bazaar content,” “search ad,” and “search ads carousel,” which could integrate ads alongside user interactions.

OpenAI has recently hired advertising engineers to support this initiative, which aims to utilize user data from billions of daily prompts for targeted advertising. Concerns about privacy and user trust have emerged, with users worried about the monetization of personal conversations.
