Summary
Google has announced an event covering Android updates which will be streamed on YouTube and its Android website a week before its I/O conference.
The company’s president of the Android ecosystem, Sameer Samat, will discuss “special announcements and surprises” during the keynote which indicates that AI and the Android operating system are set to be a significant part of the conference.
Last year’s event saw the focus shift away from Android to cover topics such as redesigning Google Search around AI and integrating the tool across its services, as well as unveiling new Android 15 features such as AI scam call detection.
This has led to speculation that updates on Android and AI could include details on Project Astra, as well as the expected announcement of Android’s next naming stint which is expected to be Android cake.
