The biggest AI story today is Google’s new push at Google I/O. Demis Hassabis, the head of Google DeepMind, presented Google’s vision for artificial general intelligence, or AGI. Google showed new AI products, including the Gemini 3.5 model family, an advanced coding assistant, smart glasses, and Gemini for Science, a tool designed to help scientific research. Google also said its AI search features are becoming more useful for complex and personalized questions.
This matters because Google is no longer only defending its search business. It is trying to lead the next stage of AI: models, agents, glasses, coding tools, science tools, and cloud infrastructure. Another report said Google is also using lower prices and faster models to compete more directly with OpenAI and Anthropic.
A second important story is about AI computing power. Business Insider reported that Anthropic may pay SpaceX a huge monthly amount for AI compute capacity through 2029. If confirmed, this shows how expensive AI infrastructure has become. The AI race is now not only about better chatbots. It is also about chips, data centers, energy, cloud services, and who can afford enough computing power.
