  "summary": "Google has launched Gemini for healthcare, expanding its existing presence in the sector which includes Google Cloud data storage for hospitals and the Fitbit wellness device, according to Endpoints News. Additionally, Google unveiled Gemini 4 Hydrogen to replace the Flash branding. Techmeme reports that Hydrogen is a standalone upgrade offering native 1 million-token input and up to 1 million output tokens. XDA Developers notes that Hydrogen is designed to handle general queries and questions similar to Google searches rather than serving as a bleeding-edge frontier model.\n\nIn Chicago and six other cities, families held protests on Wednesday against Google’s efforts to integrate its AI models into schools. Ars Technica and Ars Technica Policy report that protesters expressed concerns regarding the company's plan to make AI a permanent fixture in education and the lack of an option for students to use Google Search without AI. While Google stated it provides schools with more choice by turning off Search, Gemini, and Gemini Notebook by default, parents noted the only way for students to avoid AI interaction is to add \"-ai\" to every query.",
