At the Google I/O 2026 conference, Google introduced significant AI advancements, including the Gemini Omni and 3.5 Flash models, and the Gemini Spark agent. CEO Sundar Pichai highlighted the doubling of Gemini app users to over 900 million and emphasized AI's role as a "next-generation computing platform." The conference showcased Google's strategy to integrate AI across its ecosystem, transforming its search business into an AI-powered task gateway.
Google also launched its most advanced multimodal AI system, Gemini Omni, capable of processing text, images, video, and audio. The Gemini 3.5 Flash model, designed for low latency and cost efficiency, will become the default in the Gemini app and Google Search. Additionally, Google unveiled its next-generation AI glasses, developed in partnership with Samsung and other eyewear brands, set to release this fall.
In a move to attract developers, Google announced a new $100/month AI subscription plan, offering enhanced API access and features. The AI Ultra plan's price was reduced from $250 to $200, reflecting the intensifying competition in AI subscription services.
