Google I/O, Google's biggest developer conference of the year, is nearly upon us. Here's what to expect, including updates to Gemini and Android.
The main update for 2.5 Pro from Google came early. Announced in the first week of May, this update improved Gemini 2.5 Pro’s ability to build interactive web apps. This was a major improvement on the technology, and saw a big push for vibe coding (the ability to code through AI prompts).
Google announced several improvements for Gemini 2.5 at I/O 2025, including a new Deep Think feature, better audio output, and AI agents.
Google I/O 2025 event kicked off on Tuesday with several AI announcements from the U.S. tech giant at the marquee event. Alphabet's CEO Sundar Pichai unveiled several AI updates about its AI product Gemini,
Google has started testing a reasoning model called Deep Think for Gemini 2.5 Pro, the company has revealed at its I/O developer conference.
On Tuesday at Google I/O, the company's annual developer conference, Google announced Deep Think, an "enhanced" reasoning mode for Gemini 2.5 Pro that shows "incredible" skill at complex math and coding. The company also announced improvements to Pro as well as Gemini 2.5 Flash, the second of its "most intelligent" models. Here's what's new.

Google is about to open the floodgates for on-device generative AI by bringing Gemini Nano to more devices and more Android apps.
Google previewed a new AI model, Gemini Diffusion, that it claims is “state-of-the-art” on certain coding and math tasks — leveraging parallel generation to achieve low latency. The version being released today generates answers five times faster than Google’s Gemini 2.
