Ep. 3. What The Tech?! Google I/O 2025

Learn the latest news from Google I/O

This year, Google said, “Let there be AI,” and there was.

And it was a little terrifying. Google I/O 2025 wasn’t just a developer conference; it was a high-budget sci-fi episode written and directed by Veo 3. Here are the top What the Tech?! moments that made us wonder if we were in a simulation… or just experiencing lag.

Let’s start with Veo 3, Google’s new AI video generator that turns your wildest sentences into an Oscar award. Veo doesn’t just generate video, it creates mini movies, complete with voiceovers. Spielberg, blink twice if you’re scared.

Remember Google Glass? Well, Google's back with Android XR smart glasses that look like regular eyewear but come packed with AI features. From identifying objects to guiding you with arrows projected on the ground, Lost your keys? They remember. They’ve got you. Gemini AI lives inside them like a digital Jiminy Cricket.

Speaking of Gemini, Gemini 2.5 Pro rolled in with a new “Deep Think” feature. It doesn’t just answer your questions, it reflects on them. It’s reasoning, coding, and solving complex tasks. It’s not quite AGI, but it's knocking on the door with a very polite, unnervingly capable hand.

Then came the plot twist no one asked for but everyone secretly wanted: this is Google’s new AI tool that designs apps from natural language prompts. Say: “I want an app that helps me rate my favorite movies,” and Boom! Stitch gives you the interface and maybe some suggestions.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get weirder, Google dropped AI Mode in Search. It's like your search bar went to Harvard, studied every course, and became your all-knowing research assistant. No more endless blue links. Just pure, dense, context-rich answers. You type “What’s the best laptop for music production?” and AI Mode answers like it just dropped an album.

So yes, Google I/O 2025 didn’t just push boundaries. It tied them up and handed them to Gemini. Whether you’re thrilled, terrified, or already pitching a Veo-generated YouTube short, one thing is clear: The robots aren’t just coming to the movies; they brought popcorn.
