Google I/O 2025 will take place on May 20–21, with the main keynote kicking off at 10 AM PT on May 20. The keynote, viewable on Google’s I/O site and YouTube channel, will heavily focus on AI, not Android — as Google already made its major Android announcements last week. Expect updates on Gemini, Google’s AI model, new features for devices, and likely progress on Project Astra, the company’s advanced AI initiative.
With tech rivals like OpenAI, Meta, and Microsoft pushing hard in AI, Google is expected to showcase bold advancements to stay ahead.
The event will also touch on XR (extended reality). Android head Sameer Samat has teased a deeper look at Google’s smart glasses and XR OS, particularly following Samsung’s upcoming XR headset launch.
This might be Google’s final opportunity to shape the narrative before Samsung reveals more. Overall, I/O 2025 will be a showcase of Google’s AI and XR ambitions.
