Google I/O 2026 is well underway, following its kickoff with a Tuesday morning keynote featuring several new Gemini tools like the personalized Spark assistant, an update on the company's efforts for smart glasses and the video-editing focused Gemini Omni.
Our live reporting from the Google I/O keynote kicks off this live blog, which will continue through the developers conference as we learn more announcements while providing commentary on how these new Gemini features and systems might actually prove helpful (or not).
You can also watch the I/O conference as part of our Google I/O watch party hosted by CNET Editor at Large Andrew Lanxon and PCMag Senior Writer Andrew Gebhart. The livestream, embedded below, features both our preshow and postshow coverage with CNET staff members calling in straight from the show floor.
And if you ever get sick of all these AI and Gemini announcements, take a break from Google with another tech giant and take our Apple Guessing Game Quiz.
