In 2024, Google said ChromeOS would be built on Android going forward. An interview in July brought up how ChromeOS and Android are being merged into “a single platform.” Specifically, Google is “building the ChromeOS experience on top of Android underlying technology.”
Amon: What can you share about what we’re doing together for this new project at Google for personal computing?”
Osterloh: Our strategy overall is to bring really, really rich computing experiences to every category. We talked about Autos, we talked about XR, we talked smartphones, of course.
