Announced on The Keyword, Google is teaming up with Paris Hilton – yes, that Paris Hilton – to showcase what Android and Google’s AI tools, specifically those for app building, can do for real people.
Hilton, who calls herself an “undercover nerd,” says she has been an Android user “for years.” Specifically, she’s a Motorola user, as Motorola and Paris Hilton have been partners around the Razr brand for quite some time – with the bright pink Razr to prove it.
