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 the 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 technology in future company products.
Hardware and system announcements
Expectations are also rising regarding new devices. Google might announce the debut of a new smartphone, the Pixel 9. Predictions suggest it will have a flatter design with a thicker rear camera. Following last year's Pixel Fold model, new models of Google's foldable phones could also be released.
A vital 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 anticipate the announcement of new software for smartwatches, Wear OS 5, which will likely 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 disclose details on this.
In light of many announcements and speculations, the Google I/O conference will surely stand out as a critical 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 6:00 PM British Time.
