Very much in the AI game: Google doubles down on search, Gemini, and agents
Why listen? Our host Shouvik Das was on the ground at the most talked-about tech event of the year—Google I/O 2025—and brings you exclusive insights from Sundar Pichai’s closed-door session with global journalists. From the reimagination of Search to the rollout of AI Overviews, Gemini 2.5, and AI agentic systems, this episode breaks down how Google is moving forward with its own unique take on AI. With a massive $13.5 billion R&D spend in just one quarter, Google is clearly not just reacting—it’s building for the long haul.
In this episode, we also unpack why “all about Google has been about AI” for over two decades. Despite the noise, Google’s foundation in AI is deep, deliberate, and far from new. Pichai’s message was clear: “We’ve never built AI just for ourselves—we’ve built it for everyone to use.” Tune in to hear how Google is evolving its products, redefining Search, and staying firmly in the AI race.
