This week, The Vergecast explores how AI and hardware are reshaping everyday life, from the doctor's office to the repair bench. The team examines both the promise and the friction points of these shifts—whether it's new AI assistants taking on unexpected tasks, the supply chain chaos hitting repair shops, or Google doubling down on camera features that once defined a different era. It's a week about technology in transition, and the messy middle ground where old and new collide.
