Lately, Google has faced challenges, including reports of new AI-based search engines that could pose serious competition for the tech giant. Therefore, the upcoming Google I/O 2024 conference is of particular significance. Although we can expect new hardware, artificial intelligence will most likely become the most crucial element of this event.
AI in the spotlight
There's no doubt that artificial intelligence will be the central theme of the conference. As reported by Daily Mail, Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai, will likely announce updates concerning AI chatbots and their new features. Google may also present a more personalized version of its AI assistant, Pixie, based on Gemini technology. This, in turn, could pave the way for new possibilities, such as identifying objects in photos or receiving information about stores where they can be purchased. There's also speculation that Google might reveal some details about collaborating with Apple. This involves using Gemini in future company products.
Hardware and system announcements
Expectations are also rising regarding new devices. Google might announce the premiere of a new smartphone, the Pixel 9. Predictions suggest it will offer a flatter design with a thicker rear camera. There could also be premieres of new models of Google's foldable phones, following last year's Pixel Fold model.
A key element of the conference will also be the new Pixel 8A and updates to the Android 15 operating system, which will focus on productivity, security, and privacy. We can also expect the announcement of new software for smartwatches, Wear OS 5, which is likely to debut in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Watch 7.
There are also speculations that Google might be working on a new Tensor G4 processor for its future devices. The American tech giant may reveal details on this.
In light of many announcements and speculations, the Google I/O conference will indeed become a key event for the future of technology, awaited by the entire industry.
Where to watch the Google conference?
The conference will be held in Mountain View, California, on May 14th. It will also be broadcast on YouTube, so we can watch it without obstacles. The start of the conference is scheduled for 1:00 PM Eastern Time.
