The Google I/O takes place on May 10th this year. During the event, Google wants to show that they are still in the AI ​​race.

Google has set a date for its annual I/O conference, traditionally held at its Mountain View headquarters. Big Boss Sundar Pichai announces via twitter announced that the conference will be held on May 10 this year. During the Google I/O, the tech giant shows what the company does.

Usually the announcement of the new Android version is the highlight of the show, but it seems that Android 14, the first early version of which is already available to developers, will only play a shadowy role this year. More than ever, the event is all about AI. As many as twenty new AI products and functionalities could be announced across the tech giant’s ecosystem, according to The Verge.

Stay tuned in the AI ​​race

So the pressure on Google is great. Competitor Microsoft has been playing the AI ​​card for several months and, thanks to the cooperation with OpenAI, can add AI functionalities to its products at breakneck speed. Google chooses to develop everything in-house, but that puts it behind Microsoft. In the meantime, Salesforce has also taken part in the debates.

In early February, Google announced Bard, the answer to ChatGPT’s success. But an embarrassing mistake in a marketing campaign and a totally botched event soon casts a dark light on Bard. Google has had to go back to the drawing board and is looking at how it wants to position Bard in relation to ChatGPT and Bing Chat.

The Google I/O 2023 will probably be the big relaunch for Bard. In addition, we expect many new AI functionalities within the Google Workspace applications. As the event approaches, more news about the announcements is likely to leak out. Otherwise, Google will be happy to let us know on May 10th. So keep an eye on ITdaily so you don’t miss anything about Google I/O.
