How to Use Windows’ New ‘Quick Machine Recovery’ Tool

Google Is Now Rolling Out an AI-Powered Duolingo Competitor

Did you know you can customize Google to filter out garbage? Take these steps for better search results, including adding my work at Lifehacker as a preferred source.Google is rolling out two new AI-powered features for Google Translate this week, and it might not be good news for Duolingo. The app now generates practice sessions for you to either listen or speak along with. These lessons are generated by AI, and, according to Google, "intelligently adapt to your skill level." It follows a different AI-powered experiment Google launched back in April called "Language Lessons," though Google Translate's implementation seems a bit more basic.This feature is rolling out this week on iOS and Android in beta. It doesn't seem to have landed on my Translate app yet, but here's how Google says it'...

Google’s Browser-Based Video Editor Is Now Available for Free

Google Vids is the company's web-based video editor, and you can now use it for free. Up until now, Vids was available only for paying Google Workspace subscribers, but this move makes it accessible to everyone. The pitch here is quite simple: Vids is a simple video editing tool that integrates extremely well with Google Drive. You can use basic editing tools and templates for free, and if you're a paying Google subscriber, then you can use its AI features, too. Before you get too excited about Google Vids, though, you should know that it's not a replacement for professional editing software. It's more intended as a good place to get started, a bit like what Windows Movie Maker used to be about 15 years ago. You can do a lot with Google Vids, but if you're a professional, you'll hit the li...
