More Android and less Linux in ChromeOS's future

Google's ChromeOS operating system will soon be developed based on Android to enhance consistency with the company's other products, especially in the field of artificial intelligence. Explanations.

After 13 years, it's time to bring some consistency to ChromeOS and Android development. If Chrome OS was originally developed from the Gentoo Linux distribution, it was only later that it was able to guarantee compatibility with Linux applications, thanks to Debian.

Today it is about rationalizing development. Over time, ChromeOS has become closer to Android, ensuring direct compatibility with apps from the Play Store. Hence the idea of ​​bringing Android devices technically closer to Chromebook computers.

So Google will integrate certain parts of the Android stack, such as the Linux Android kernel and Android frameworks, into the foundations of ChromeOS. If the work is going to take time, standardization of Bluetooth combinations will be a reality from ChromeOS 122. Hence, ChromeOS (rational choice) will benefit from BlueZ from now on, But it is fluoride (Bluetooth layer for Android) to ensure the same functionality available on smartphones and tablets.

Another goal is to help different devices such as phones and accessories work better with Chromebooks, but also with the new elements of artificial intelligence that Google intends to spread almost everywhere in our daily lives.
