Gemini is expected to be front-and-center once again at this year’s developer conference, with Google potentially introducing new versions of AI models and more agentic AI features.

The keynote is likely to bring similar updates to Search and other Google properties.

We could also get an update on Google XR, and potentially even a glimpse at some new smart glasses, with models from Samsung and even Gucci reportedly in the works.
