This week's Android Police podcast is a heady, tough one for us, but it's one we have to do because the news and business cycles dictate it. Google climbs up yet another rung on its ambitions of AI domineering and we're taking the time to ask the hard questions that have been pounding around for years. We might answer them, if not for you, for ourselves. Also on the docket, some quaint little Pixel rumors, a reviewer's review of his review of the OnePlus 12R, and a whole lot more.
