Google just launched Playground, an experimental browser-based platform that lets anyone build, play, and share custom games using plain text prompts. Creators can tweak physics, rules, and art styles via chat, play multiplayer with friends, and share games publicly. It is currently available to users 18+ in the U.S., with Unity Spark integration coming soon.
Nothing just rolled out Playground and Essential Apps for Nothing Phone 3, letting users build and share custom apps, widgets, and back-display animations entirely through prompts. The feature is launching in alpha on Nothing OS 4, and developers can export the generated code to keep tweaking. It is an early step toward Nothing's goal of an AI-focused operating system.
Apple has developed internal LLMs with up to 150 billion parameters that approach ChatGPT's quality in internal testing. Employees are running prototype chatbots through a tool called Playground, but frequent factual hallucinations and executive hesitation are keeping the tech locked inside Apple for now.
Playground just launched a revamped platform powered by its new Playground v3 beta foundation model. The tool focuses heavily on practical graphic design, letting users generate T-shirt prints, logos, social graphics, and memes. Best of all, it is live right now with no waitlist.
