Google is making one of its biggest-ever bets on artificial intelligence.
“As we move into the agentic era, we are taking this to the next level,” Pichai said. “We are making big investments now and for the future.”
“Today, nearly 75% of all new code at Google is AI-generated and approved by engineers, up from 50% last fall,” he said. “We are now shifting to truly agentic workflows.”
However, despite the push into agentic AI, Pichai emphasized that human engineers review the AI-generated code. He said Google is also using AI to automate parts of its cybersecurity operations, helping teams process large volumes of threat intelligence faster and respond to risks more quickly.
“Each month, our teams receive unstructured threat reports at a scale that will take thousands of hours to review—a nearly impossible task,” he said. “Today, our security operation center agents automatically triage tens of thousands of unstructured threat reports each month by accelerating the extraction of critical intelligence and filtering out the noise. It’s reduced threat mitigation time by over 90%; we are more on the front foot than ever before.”
Citi unveiled “Citi Sky,” an AI-powered wealth management assistant for U.S. clients. At the same time, Thinking Machines Lab said it expanded its use of Google Cloud’s AI Hypercomputer to accelerate AI research and model training.
“One thing that is super clear: We are firmly in the agentic Gemini era,” Pichai said. “The conversation has gone from ‘Can we build an agent?’ to ‘How do we manage thousands of them?’”
