California, May 17 – Google’s annual developer conference, Google I/O 2025, is set to take place from May 20 to May 21, with major announcements expected from CEO Sundar Pichai, DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis, and other top executives. The event will heavily focus on artificial intelligence, with major updates likely across Google’s product ecosystem.
What to Expect at Google I/O 2025
At the heart of this year’s event will be Gemini, Google’s next-generation AI platform. The much-anticipated Gemini 2.5 Pro update is expected to headline the announcements, alongside developments in DeepMind’s Project Astra, LearnLM, and other AI-driven initiatives.
There’s also buzz around Samsung’s Android XR headset, codenamed Project Moohan—positioned as a competitor to Apple Vision Pro. A sneak preview is likely during the conference.
While Android 16 was unveiled a week earlier during a special “The Android Show” livestream, Google I/O may still touch on Android-related developments, alongside updates to Gmail, Chrome, the Google Play Store, and Google Cloud.
