This Ubuntu launcher concept mockups how on-device AI could be used to install apps and turn clipboard items into a calendar itinerary.
It's made by a Canonical engineer and is available to install from the Snap Store – though it's not a real, functional launcher, more of an interactive simulation.
Interesting though…

@omgubuntu This is actually very cool & I hope it goes ahead. I have a Chromebook Plus which has Gemini built in and I have to have to say It's really good and kind of fun to use. It would be great to see this type of AI interactivity with Ubuntu and even better if it remains local and not in the cloud.
