Reddit opens Max campaign creation to third-party Ads API clients

The change makes Reddit's more automated campaign type usable by agencies, ad-tech platforms and internal campaign systems instead of only through first-party buying surfaces. It expands automation reach, but third-party builders inherit Max's creative and optimization assumptions rather than gaining a new manual campaign type.

Cloud Run adds singleton instances for long-lived, individually addressable workloads

Cloud Run instances sit between autoscaling serverless services and a small VM. They run one individually addressable container continuously, can be stopped and restarted, and use shared CPU economics; Google’s launch example prices 1 vCPU plus 1 GiB running for 30 days at $5.70.

Amazon joins YouTube Shopping so creators can tag products instead of relying on description links

The integration brings Amazon’s catalog into YouTube’s native shopping layer. It reduces the gap between product recommendation and purchase compared with description links, but access currently requires both YouTube and Amazon affiliate eligibility and is still limited to a select group of creators.

Google DeepMind is piloting double-blind frontier-model evaluations with confidential computing

The pilot attacks a persistent evaluation trade-off: labs do not want to reveal frontier-model internals, while evaluators do not want benchmark prompts leaking back to the model provider. DeepMind says a Singapore AI Safety Institute pilot kept both sides’ sensitive assets hidden during execution.

Google is adding hard spend caps and commitment pricing for AI agent workloads

Google’s new agent FinOps model combines hard monthly spend caps that pause agent API calls, Flexible Savings Plans with one- or three-year commitments, pay-as-you-go Gemini Enterprise usage and planned deferred execution at up to half normal inference cost. The controls are useful, but commitment economics and task eligibility need to be modeled carefully.

A preregistered field experiment finds Google’s AI search reduces publisher clicks

The study moves the AI-search traffic debate beyond observational correlations: participants were randomly assigned to current Google Search, a version with AI features hidden, or AI Mode-only search during ordinary browsing. It is still a preprint and does not establish effects for every query or publisher.

Google Cloud opens an agent-ready device farm for mobile testing

Google Cloud’s Developer Device Platform is now in public preview with remote physical-device streaming, parallel emulator testing, smart sharding and an agent skill that can drive multi-step journeys, inspect visual issues and feed fixes back into coding agents. It is billed per active device minute and remains a pre-GA service.
