AI on Your Phone, Without the Internet

Without a press release or splashy blog, Google quietly launched something big: an app that lets users run open-source AI models locally on their phones. It’s called AI Edge Gallery and it’s not just for show.

Here’s everything you need to know:

• The app lets Android users download and run Hugging Face models directly on-device.

• Tasks include image generation, code editing, Q&A, and text rewriting; all offline.

• A “Prompt Lab” gives users pre-built templates and sliders to tweak model behavior.

• Models run fully offline using the device’s processor, without needing a cloud connection.

• Google says newer phones with more RAM and CPU will perform better with larger models.

• The app is experimental and currently must be sideloaded from GitHub.

• It’s open-source under Apache 2.0; developers can remix or use it commercially.

This is the clearest sign yet that Google sees a future in edge AI. Local models reduce latency, preserve privacy, and make AI feel more like a personal tool than a remote service. It's not polished yet but the direction is worth watching.

Scale AI just scooped up a remote hiring startup

Scale AI just made a quiet but telling move: it hired the team behind Pesto AI, a startup that helped companies hire remote developers. It’s a signal worth paying attention to.

Here’s everything you need to know:

• Pesto AI was founded in 2017 by Ayush Jaiswal and Swiggy co-founder Rahul Jaimini.

• The company helped startups recruit software developers remotely and sometimes trained them too.

• Backed by Ryan Hoover and Sahil Lavingia, Pesto raised over $8M in funding.

• Now it’s shutting down operations, with its co-founder Ayush Jaiswal joining Scale AI as head of growth.

• Jaiswal called the move “the next chapter” in his journey to create global opportunity through AI.

• It’s unclear how many of Pesto’s 70+ employees are moving to Scale.

• Scale hasn’t commented yet but the hire suggests growing ambition beyond labeling data.

Scale AI sees talent as infrastructure. Hiring the Pesto team isn’t just about growth; it’s about embedding remote-first thinking and developer access deeper into its model. If AI companies want to scale globally, this is one way to do it.

Thanks for reading…

That’s a wrap.
