Project Astra debuted at I/O 2024 as a next-generation AI assistant that can view the world around you, and provide advice and tips throughout the day.

Volvo has announced that its vehicles will be among the first to make the switch from Google Assistant to Gemini.

Android Studio, the integrated development environment (IDE) for Android app developers, is getting an AI upgrade, Google announced at its developer conference, Google I/O 2025.

Google is partnering with Warby Parker on developing smart glasses through its Android XR platform, challenging Meta's smart Ray-Bans.
