Google is set to host its annual developer conference, Google I/O 2025, on May 20 and May 21. The event will feature key announcements and updates from company CEO Sundar Pichai, DeepMind CEO and co-founder Demis Hassabis, and executives overseeing Google’s Search, Cloud, and Android divisions. AI is expected to dominate the agenda at Google I/O 2025. Chief among the anticipated highlights is the continued development of Google’s AI family, Gemini. Pichai and Hassabis are likely to use this platform to showcase how Gemini is advancing Google’s competitive edge against rivals like OpenAI, xAI, and Anthropic. Updates to DeepMind’s Project Astra, a multimodal AI system, are also anticipated. Last year, Google teased a pair of smart glasses powered by Project Astra, hinting at potential new applications of this technology. Another focal point will be the integration of AI across Google’s product lineup. Elizabeth Reid, head of Search, will present on how generative AI is transforming the search experience. Additional sessions will explore how AI is being utilized in scientific research, how AI agents can operate apps for users, and how Waymo’s autonomous vehicles rely on AI for navigation. The Google I/O 2025 keynote will begin at 10 a.m. PT on May 20 at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View. A live stream of the keynote can be accessed through the official Google I/O website or via the embedded player below. At 1:30 p.m. PT, the developer keynote will commence, focusing more on technical aspects and innovations for developers. At 3:30 p.m. PT, Hassabis will join Alex Kantrowitz, host of the Big Technology Podcast, to discuss the future of DeepMind’s AI and its global impact. Concurrently, there will be livestreams covering the latest developments in Android, Chrome, and Google Cloud. While not all sessions will be livestreamed, TechCrunch will be present to provide comprehensive coverage of the most significant announcements. In a notable change, Android-related updates will be released a week before Google I/O 2025 during "The Android Show." This event, scheduled for May 13 at 10 a.m. PT, will offer early insights into upcoming Android features and improvements. A livestream of "The Android Show" will be available on the official Android website. These dual events promise to deliver a wealth of information on Google’s latest technological advancements, making them essential viewing for tech enthusiasts and professionals alike.
