The rising interest in generative AI in the past year has certainly put the spotlight on Google Gemini, and this time around, we might see a lot more of artificial intelligence in tonight’s announcement.

Google also seems to be steering towards transforming its virtual assistant experience into an advanced, Gemini-powered chatbot.

Early beta insights have revealed various features, including partial screen sharing, extended health tracking capabilities and an improved Find My Device. 

Lastly, despite Pixel 8a’s early release, rumours suggest that there may be a few more hardware announcements lined up. Speculations also point towards the possibility of an upcoming Pixel Fold; however, tipsters have also indicated that it may not launch until later this year.
