Google announces all products will be AI focused

At GMC, ignorance is the furthest thing from bliss. Bliss is research, testing, testing the testing, until it results in not just one truck, but a whole lineup.

The 2025 GMC Sierra lineup featuring the Sierra 1500 heavy duty and EV because true bliss is removing every shadow from every doubt. We are professional grade. Visit GMC.com to learn more. At Sierra, discover top workout gear at incredible prices, which might lead to another discovery. Your headphones haven't been connected this whole time. Awkward. Awkward.

Discover top brands at unexpectedly low prices. Sierra, let's get moving. Welcome back to the Elon Musk podcast, the world's authority on Tesla, SpaceX, X, Neuralink, and all things Elon. I'm your host, Will Walden. I've been using Current as my bank for about four years, and it's honestly been a really great experience.

No overdraft fees. I get paid up to two days early. And the app makes it super easy to track all of my finances. And if you're looking for a modern way to bank, forget those old banks. They're boring. And also, their apps aren't that good. So go to the link in the show notes, check out Current, and sign up and support me.

the show. Google pours artificial intelligence into nearly every product that it makes. Imagine if the same technology reshaped search, coding, shopping, and communication across every screen and phone. Now, could that wave redefine daily computing for billions of users?

executives opened Google IO 2025 Mountain View with hard numbers. Daily query rooted through Gemini models tripled over six months. That Ironwood tensor processing unit launching this year will deliver 42.5 exaflops to Google cloud customers. Those gains frame every announcement that follows. Google rebuilt its subscription ladder. A

AI Pro at $20 per month, rebrands Gemini Advanced and adds faster responses, longer context windows, VO3 video generation, and 30 gigabytes of prompt history. AI Ultra at $50 per month, $250 with half price for three months, grants access to the largest Gemini weights.

Loose rate limits, a preview agent manager, and 30 terabytes of storage. The company positions AI Ultra for studios that need uninterrupted multimodal reasoning.

Chrome receives AI mode for anyone over 18 on beta, dev, or canary channels. The assistant reads open tabs, summarizes research, labels code diffs, and drafts documentation. Engineers plan multi-tab synthesis and full voice navigation next. These tasks stay local when policy rules forbid cloud transfer.

Android 16 arrives with Material 3 Expressive. Tight...

tight runtime permissions for local LLM calls and deep Gemini hooks and settings, keyboard and share sheet workflows. Gemini Live, the voice-first companion, moves out of Project Astra incubation. As managing editor Patrick Holland states, Astra is a rehearsal of features that, when they're ready for the spotlight, get added to Gemini Live.

The public build pivots from quick chat to structured workflow on a single phrase, letting users plan trips, split chores into calendar tasks, and request code samples. Google also previewed lightweight XR glasses that project a 110-degree field of view at 90 frames per second.

Snapdragon XR3 chip manages pose tracking while the cloud resolves language queries. Built-in microphones and bode conduction speakers root Gemini Live prompts so users can identify tools, translate text, or follow cooking steps without lifting up their phone.

Google Search gains an AI mode that replaces classic link lists with real-time overviews that blend web data, personal files, and shopping assistance. Customers can upload selfies to test clothing fit through a cloth simulation model derived from Veo. Civil rights groups warn about biometric risk, and Google counters with end-to-end encryption and on-demand purge controls.

There's a thing called Google Beam. It revised Project Starline with a six camera array that captures full body volumetric video at 60 frames per second. An HP partnership will produce meeting room units in a compact clinic model for telehealth. Underlying light field streams preserve eye contact as participants shift, boosting presence without any headgear.

And creative workers receive flow with Image N4 and V03 into a single pipeline for storyboard creation, scene extension, and also automatic audio. Flow maintains color palette and character scale between prompts, solving consistency gaps that plagued earlier generators.

Imogen 4 sharpens text edges and micro textures while VO3 adds native ambient sound dialogue. Both sit inside AI Pro, while Flow requires AI Ultra.

Now, developers see Gemini code assist in the cloud workstations. The tool scans build logs, proposes fixes, and sites open source references directly in Visual Studio Code or JetBrains IDEs. During a live demo, Gemini completed Pokemon Blue on original Game Boy hardware without scripted aid, planning and adapting to random battles to showcase long horizon reasoning.

These tools matter because people spend most computer hours in browsers, in boxes, and on their phones. Chrome AI mode

can compress research tasks, while personalized smart replies promise to trim inbox fatigue by matching each sender's tone. XR glasses free hands in warehouses, kitchens, and hospital wards where instant object recognition speeds workflows. And developers face fresh cost capability trade-offs.

AI Ultra cuts prototype time for large projects, yet charges a premium fee that may push small studios toward open source alternatives. The new tiers emulate the creative software market where professionals accept monthly bills for specialized power. Now, privacy safeguards remain central.

Tryon features reliance-sensitive body data, and AI agents sift through personal documents. Google publishes clear opt-out switches and encryption claims, but independent audits will determine user trust. Competition frames every feature, though. Chrome AI mode counters Microsoft Copilot and Edge. XR glasses challenge MetaQuest 3 and Apple Vision Pro.

Beam squares against Cisco holographic calls and Flow answers OpenAI's Sora pipeline. Consumers and developers will decide which ecosystem delivers the best balance of convenience, price, and control of the output.

Google closed the keynote by setting a 96% success rate among I/O code lab attendees who shipped functional apps on day one using Gemini, Cloud Run, and Firebase. That figure underlines Google's effort to shorten the path from idea to deployment. If you have an idea, you should be able to deploy it. It shouldn't take you months of development, according to Google.

Google I.O. 2025 links model upgrades, premier tiers, and hardware advances into one funnel that feeds both hobbyists and enterprises. The next year will reveal whether users embrace the subscriptions, trust the privacy of Google, and they actually find real value in the expanded AI stack.

Excema isn't always obvious, but it's real. And so is the relief from Ebbgliss. After an initial dosing phase of 16 weeks, about 4 in 10 people taking Ebbgliss achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing. Ebbgliss, Libricizumab, LBKZ, a 250 milligram per 2 milliliter injection is a

Prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kilograms with moderate to severe eczema. Also called atopic dermatitis that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin or topicals or who cannot use topical therapies. Ebglis can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don't use if you're allergic to Ebglis. Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Eye problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening eye problems.

You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with Epglys. Before starting Epglys, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. Searching for real relief? Ask your doctor about Epglys and visit epglys.lily.com or call 1-800-LILY-RX or 1-800-545-5979.
