AI NewsDisney’s first CTO led an AI startup it once accused of copying its characters

Disney’s first CTO led an AI startup it once accused of copying its characters

2:28 AM IST · September 19, 2026

Disney has hired its first-ever chief technology officer and in a curious twist, the new executive hails from an AI startup that the Magic Kingdom previously accused of infringing on its IP. Karandeep Anand is the former CEO of Character.AI, a company that has weatherednumerous legal problemssince it was founded in 2021. One of those legal problems arose in September 2025, when Disney sent the companya cease and desist letteraccusing it of infringing on its beloved characters. Character.AI allows users to create distinct virtual characters with generative AI and talk and interact with them. Disney previously claimed that the company was hosting copyrighted characters from its franchises. In addition to Disney’s accusations, Character.AIhas also been suedover allegations that the company’s chatbots encouraged users to commit self-harm and suicide. Varietyreports thatAnand was chosen for the role by new Disney CEO Josh D’Amaro, who took over after former company chief Bob Iger stepped down in March. The hiring suggests D’Amaro wants the company to embrace new technologies. Anand formerly served as a board adviser to Character.AI before becoming CEO in May 2025,according to his LinkedIn profile. He also worked at Facebook between 2015 and 2021 and, before that, spent 15 years at Microsoft.

Google’s new ‘CC’ is an AI agent that helps families run their households

Google is testing a new product designed to help families coordinate with the support of an AI agent. This week, the search giantintroduceda new version ofCC, an AI agent designed to work across email, calendar, chats, and tasks. With the update, CC now focuses on keeping families organized, planning for the day ahead, and even handling family-specific tasks, like signing permission slips, creating shopping lists, or crafting weekly meal plans. The move to make CC more family-focused comes as a number of AI startups are experimenting with how to best fit agentic AI into consumers’ lives. Some AI tools, likeOllieandFambot, for instance, have aimed their services directly at helping parents and families. Google’s CC, meanwhile,began its life as a productivity agentthat connected to Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and the wider web to understand your day, then deliver a “Your Day Ahead” briefing to your inbox. In May, the tool came to the Gemini app as “Daily Brief.” Google said user requests showed that people wanted to use the feature more for household management tasks. They wanted AI to help them keep up with kids’ school schedules, sports practices, bills, meal plans, and more. As a result, Google shifted CC to become an agent for families that helps run their households. Now, CC is getting its own Google account, so it can collaborate with family members on tasks, while also maintaining its own specific set of permissions for accessing data. Google explains that each family member chooses what they want to share — like emails about school events, sports, clubs, birthday party invites, doctor appointments, or anything else. These can be forwarded to CC via its email address, or shared automatically. To automate sharing, users can pick the email senders whose messages they always want to share with CC going forward, like schools, travel companies, clubs, or sports teams. (CC will also suggest email senders to add on a weekly basis.) The company says CC currently supports up to six family members who can share information and collaborate with the agent. Beyond email, CC can also coordinate household activities by tracking important dates and to-dos, and then automatically adding them to the calendar or a shared task list. That means, for instance, every time the orthodontist sends an email confirmation of your next appointment or the school announces a teacher workday, CC can put it on the shared calendar. What’s more, the agent can manage select tasks on a family’s behalf, like filling out permission slips or activity registration PDFs, making school supply shopping lists, planning weekly meals, figuring out drive times between activities, creating shared Docs or Sheets, and more. It will even ask for missing details, as needed, and update its group memory so it can be more helpful going forward. Google notes that CC runs on its own isolated cloud computer, powered by Gemini and Google’s agentic harness, Antigravity. The experiment is only available for U.S. users with a personal Gmail account, who are ages 18 and up. That’s a big drawback for the time being because it means older kids, like tweens and teens, can’t use the service unless they lie about their age on their Google accounts. It also means they can’t use it with their school-provided emails, despite the fact that many attend schools that run everything on Chromebooks and Google apps and have inboxes filled with school-related updates. CC could help larger households, where parents have to coordinate with each other and with other adults, like grandparents, caregivers, nannies, or adult children still living at home, whichtends to be more commonthese days. Existing CC users will be invited via email in the coming days to upgrade their accounts, Google says, while new users can join awaitlistto access the AI agent.
