Did Google use a MacBook during its live demo at Google I/O?

It's Google I/O, the Mountain View's biggest conference of the year for Android developers.

So why did we notice the company was using a MacBook during one of its live demos?
Varun Mohan, an engineer for Antigravity at Google Deepmind, is showcasing how Antigravity functions.

However, one thing we noticed was right at the very top of his computer screenshare, you can see a tiny Apple logo.

One would assume the company would have used a Chromebook. And while there were no glitches, this slip is a funny one.

Here's a closer look at the logo:

And that's not the only place Google used Apple devices during the show. An iPhone 17 Pro (Max?) was clearly shown during Google's Gemini Spark demo, showing the agent working while the phone was put down.

But why did Google do it??

Google tends to show these types of new features and announcements off on the company's own devices (for obvious reasons), but it seems that they're trying to subconciously say that Gemini's latest tricks aren't just for Android users. Will Apple users bite?
