Here are two new features coming to Google Photos:
1) Photo Stacks: Google Photos will now automatically identify and group similar photos that were taken close together into a Photo Stack and select the top pick that best captures that moment. You'll have the option to select your own top pick, modify stacks, or turn off Photo Stacks entirely.
2) Better screenshot and document organization: Google Photos will now better identify and automatically categorize screenshots and documents into more helpful albums like IDs, receipts, and event information. Also, Photos will automatically identify things like dates in screenshots so you can quickly add a reminder in your calendar.

Google has published a Play Store listing for the Pixel's new system "AICore" app that I previously discovered in Android 14 Beta 3.
The denoscription for the app says it powers "intelligent features across Android".
"AI-driven features run directly on your device using the latest foundation models."
"To keep those features smart, your device updates the AI models automatically."
"AI Core manages these updates while providing AI functionality to other apps."
If you access AI Core's Play Store listing on a non-Pixel 8 series device, it says the app isn't compatible with your device. Google previously said the Pixel 8 Pro will run the company's generative AI "foundation" models on-device, so this app could be what installs and updates those models. Though interestingly, the AI Core stub is installed on other Pixel builds plus the Play Store listing has the required OS as Android 12+, so who knows!
H/T Nail Sadykov from the Google News Telegram group for spotting the listing!

The Pixel Launcher is FINALLY preparing to add a toggle that lets you HIDE the At a Glance widget from the home screen. After the widget is hidden, the space underneath it is open to other apps/widgets!
This toggle is not visible yet in Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1, so I had to manually activate it!

Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1 adds the previously mentioned "single app" screen recording and screen casting features!
When you start a screen recording, you now have the option to record a single app or the entire screen. Choosing single app opens an app selector with recent apps. The resulting screen recording won't include the navigation or status bar areas.
You can also choose to screen cast a single app instead of the entire screen.

Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1 is preparing a new "app quarantining" feature.
Under Settings > System > Developer options, there's a hidden "Quarantined Apps" page that lets you "quarantine" apps. I'm not sure yet what quarantining an app entails, though, so I'll have to dig deeper.
