AI overshadowed Pixel at the Pixel event
Briefly

A few months ago at Google I/O, we shared a broad range of breakthroughs to make AI more helpful for everyone. We're obsessed with the idea that AI can make life easier and more productive for people. It can help us learn. It can help us express ourselves. And it can help us be more creative.
For the first 25 minutes of the show, Osterloh and his colleagues didn't make any announcements about the Pixel 9 lineup, the Pixel Watch 3, or the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Instead, they highlighted things like Google's investments in its tech stack and Tensor chips.
Even before showing demos on its phones, Google was showing its AI tools onstage on phones from Samsung and Motorola. This encompassed how all six of its products with more than 2 billion monthly users leverage Gemini AI models.
Google also used this pre-hardware section to highlight Gemini Live, a tool that allows for natural back-and-forth conversations, showcasing an engagement model in AI that seems a response to competitive advances from other firms.
