Meta AI launches Incognito Chat as Google triples Gemini Antigravity limits

Meta AI's Incognito Chat ships a no-history, no-personalization mode for sensitive queries — explicitly modeled on browser-private-mode UX. The launch arrived during a difficult media cycle for Meta AI, with Fox News and others running stories on AI 'girlfriend' parasocial dynamics and AI-generated scam ads on Meta surfaces. Incognito Chat reads as a UX-and-PR response to the trust deficit more than a technical leap.
The related and arguably more substantive story is Google tripling Gemini Antigravity quotas twice in a few days (per Sundar Pichai and Logan Kilpatrick on X). Antigravity — Google's coding environment — is seeing demand spikes that have prompted multiple short-notice quota expansions, and a UI update to the IDE that drew direct community feedback Demis Hassabis acknowledged on X.
Competitively, Meta's privacy-pitched mode targets the same anxieties driving Apple's WWDC 2026 Siri privacy narrative. Google's Antigravity scramble is a positive-demand signal but also a capacity-management embarrassment in a week where Sundar Pichai's I/O keynote emphasized 3.2 quadrillion tokens monthly — the contrast didn't go unnoticed on dev Twitter.
Watch next: whether Meta publishes an Incognito Chat data-handling whitepaper, and whether Antigravity's quota expansion stabilizes by month-end.
