Google I/O 2025: What to expect including Gemini and Android 16 updates?

Google I/O, Google I/O, is the biggest developer conference of the year and it almost makes it to us.

The I/O, scheduled for May 20-21 at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, will showcase product launches from across Google's portfolio. Expect a lot of news related to Android, Chrome, Google Search, YouTube, and of course, Google's AI-driven chatbot, Gemini.

Earlier this week, Google hosted another event dedicated to Android updates: the Android Show. The company has announced new ways to find lost Android phones and other items, additional device-level features for advanced protection programs, security tools to protect against fraud and theft, and a new design language called Material 3 Expressive.

This is another thing you can expect.

AI is the Tech du Jour, and Google, like its rival, has invested heavily in it.

I/O's Shoo-in is a new addition (or number) to Google's flagship Gemini family of AI models. Over the past few weeks, leaks suggest that the updated Gemini Ultra model is on the way, suggesting that the Gemini Ultra is Google's best Gemini product.

This upgraded Gemini Ultra could be a more expensive Gemini subscription.

Google offers a single premium tier, Gemini Advanced ($20 per month) to unlock additional features in Gemini Chatbot. However, Google will soon be able to launch two new plans, Premium Plus and Premium Pro. It is not yet clear what benefits will be attached and how these plans will be priced compared to Gemini Advanced.

Google will almost certainly talk about ASTRA about its broad efforts to build AI apps and “agents” for real-time multimodal understanding. Also, perhaps on the agenda is Project Mariner, Google's AI “agent” that can navigate and take action across the web on your behalf. X people have discovered “computer usage” in code on Google's AI Studio developer platform.

Everything else

With the official I/O schedule, Google has a lot to discuss following the Android show and I/O Keynote address.

This schedule lists sessions specializing in Chrome and Google Cloud, Google Play (The Android App Store), Android development tools, and Gemma's “open” AI models.

Last year, Google announced some AI-themed surprises in I/O. This includes a set of models that have been fine-tuned for an educational application called LearnLM. Google's upgrade to Viral Podcast Generation Notebook Lum may be one such surprise. The leaked code is likely to reveal a “Video Overview” tool that creates a video overview and leverage Google's VEO 2 video generation model.

Update: 3:19pm Pacific: Added a list of new Android features announced at the Android show.
