Google I/O LIVE Updates: Google’s Focus on Agentic AI

Google has building Gemini AI features into several products over the last year, but one of the biggest highlights so far as been the company’s Project Astra that was unveiled last year at the company’s developer conference. Some of those features that Google showcased at the time felt truly futuristic, and Google quickly added some of those features to its AI assistant, including Live Mode.

This year, the company’s focus on Agentic AI and the ability to use AI to automate several tasks could help the company distinguish itself from the competition. However, Google already faces strong competition from rivals like Perplexity, that have tied up with smartphone OEMs to include their AI assistant on their handsets.



Google I/O 2025 kicked off at 10:30pm on Tuesday, and the company made notable announcements related to artificial intelligence (AI) features and new capabilities coming to Android XR, its new operating system for extended reality (XR) devices. While Google also showed off new Android 16 features and improvements coming to Wear OS 6 during a special livestream last week, we also learned about these upcoming software updates during the Google I/O 2025 livestream. You can read along as we share live updates during the event.
