How can AI agents fit seamlessly into everyday workflows without disrupting how teams already operate?

Google recently expanded their Agentspace platform, as announced by Raj Pai, VP of Product Management, on the Google Cloud Blog. The update builds on efforts from December, introducing new features that make it easier for teams to access company knowledge, create AI tools for routine tasks, and work within systems they already use.

Designed for the workplace, Agentspace helps teams build and use AI agents that can search, analyze, and respond to information across tools and systems—without requiring people to step away from what they’re doing. The new capabilities reflect a shift toward embedding AI into the natural rhythm of work, supporting rather than steering it.

Here’s a quick look at what’s new:

• Agentspace now works directly from the Chrome address bar

• A new Agent Gallery helps teams discover and access agents built across vendors

• Agent Designer allows teams to build their own tools—no code needed

• Two Google-built agents are now available to help with research and brainstorming

• Agent2Agent protocol enables cross-platform collaboration between agents

• Enterprise-level security and compliance remain built-in

• An Agent Marketplace is growing, offering agents tailored to business use cases

Google’s approach here is practical: rather than reinventing how teams work, Agentspace is designed to support what already exists and quietly enhance it. The focus is on accessibility—letting people interact with AI in a way that feels intuitive and doesn’t require shifting platforms or learning new tools.

By integrating AI agents into familiar environments, Google is making it easier for organizations to try out and adopt these tools. For teams looking to bring AI into their workflows without major changes, this evolution of Agentspace offers one possible path: start small, stay embedded, and let the tech grow alongside your needs.

A bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers has reintroduced the NO FAKES Act, a bill aimed at protecting individuals—especially artists and public figures—from unauthorized use of their voices and likenesses through AI-generated deepfakes. Backed by SAG-AFTRA, the RIAA, OpenAI, and YouTube, the bill proposes the prompt removal of such content and gives individuals the right to hold platforms accountable. Supporters argue the legislation balances innovation with the protection of human identity and creativity. Stars like Randy Travis and Fran Drescher shared emotional testimonies in support of the bill, which continues to gain bipartisan momentum.

Anthropic has released one of the largest real-world studies of how students use AI, analyzing over half a million anonymized academic conversations with Claude. The findings show high adoption among Computer Science students, with AI mostly used for tasks like content creation, problem solving, and concept analysis—raising important questions about skill development, academic integrity, and equitable access. While AI supports higher-order thinking, researchers caution against over-reliance that could hinder foundational learning. The study opens the door for deeper exploration into how education policies and AI tools can evolve together.
