**0:04** · This is your weekly update on the coolest developer news from Google.

**0:08** · First off, we have some exciting updates to share about Bard.

### Updates to Bard

**0:11** · It can now connect to Google Apps and services, which means it's able to pull from data in Gmail, Drive, Docs, Google Maps, and YouTube.

**0:19** · Imagine applying for a new job.

**0:20** · You can use Bard to find your previous resume from Drive and continue to collaborate on a new cover letter in Docs.

**0:27** · We're committed to protecting your personal information, and the content is never seen by human reviewers.

**0:32** · You are always in control of your privacy, and you can turn off these extensions at any time.

**0:37** · Check the description to learn more.

**0:39** · Next, we can head over to Go to talk about some exciting updates with WASI.

### WASI support in GO

**0:44** · Go can now target WASI via a new API in preview.

**0:47** · This allows you to bring WebAssembly out of the browser and run sandboxed applications on the server.

**0:53** · You can learn more on the Go blog.

### Introducing Flutter’s Consulting Directory

**0:56** · Now heading over to Flutter, we can talk about the newly released Flutter consulting directory.

**1:01** · This is a place for design agencies and digital technology consultants to be discovered and to have a place to point people to when they ask about Flutter work.

**1:09** · There is also a Flutter pitch deck which you can copy and help consultants as they ramp up their Flutter expertise.

**1:15** · You can learn more at flutter.dev/consultants.

### How we made Space Invaders: World Defense

**1:19** · And to help celebrate the 45th anniversary of Space Invaders, we collaborated with Taito, which is the Japanese developer of the original arcade game.

**1:27** · We are happy to launch "Space Invaders World Defense," which is an immersive AR game that uses location-based technology to explore neighborhoods.

**1:35** · In this game, you defend the Earth from virtual Space Invaders that spawn from nearby structures, and you get points by taking them down.

**1:42** · The Geospatial API allows you to attach content remotely to any area mapped by the Google Street View, creating richer, more robust experiences.

**1:51** · You can learn more on the developer's Google blog.
