Your Future Chromebook Might Run a New Android-Based Aluminium OS

  • Recently, a LinkedIn job listing revealed Aluminium OS as an Android-based operating system built with AI at its core, supplying the codename Aluminium for Google's new platform.
  • After more than a decade of consideration, Google has discussed bringing Android to PCs more seriously in recent years, and Android head Sameer Samat confirmed combining ChromeOS and Android with a planned release next year.
  • According to the listing, the role will build a portfolio of ChromeOS and Aluminium Operating System devices across laptops, detachables, tablets and boxes, driving the roadmap to transit Google from ChromeOS to Aluminium.
  • On-Device AI could improve because a PC-focused Android release could boost AI via Gemini on less constrained desktops and laptops, potentially reshaping the Chromebook and PC market beyond macOS and Windows.
  • The listing was two months old and only recently noticed, and it uses the British spelling 'Aluminium' as a codename ALOS while targeting entry-level, mass-market, and premium devices.
