Google has made a significant stride in the tech industry by unveiling its inaugural custom ARM processor named "Axion," tailored specifically for data centres.

Google pulled more than 100 apps from a set of 10 developers in India late last month after the Indian firms had “persistently not complied with its billing policies.” Google later restored the apps, but the firms will have to comply with the Play Store billing policies. The Indian developers had reached the CCI to investigate the matter.

In a recent development, Google has issued an apology to India following a major controversy sparked by its AI platform, Gemini. The platform came under scrutiny after returning "unsubstantiated" results to a query about Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Minister Vaishnaw emphasised the crucial role of the startup ecosystem in the Indian economy and expressed the government's commitment to protecting them from the whims of "any big tech." 

The controversy sparked when Chandrasekhar flagged a tweet showcasing how Gemini AI responds to inquiries about prominent global leaders. Some of the responses were labeled as 'complex,' while others expressed opinions, particularly concerning Prime Minister Modi.
