I wanted to test Gemini Advanced, ChatGPT, and Copilot Pro head-to-head to see which one helps you get answers faster and more accurately. These are the paid versions, all promising live web access, smarter context, and fewer hallucinations.

Google I/O 2025 was dedicated to AI. At its annual developer conference, Google announced updates that put more AI into Search, Gmail, and Chrome. Its AI models were updated to be better at making images, taking actions, and writing code.

Google says the release version of 2.5 Flash is better at reasoning, coding, and multimodality, but it uses 20–30 percent fewer tokens than the preview version. This edition is now live in Vertex AI, AI Studio, and the Gemini app. It will be made the default model in early June.

GitHub has launched a powerful AI coding agent in Copilot that writes code, fixes bugs, and opens pull requests.

The company has doubled down on AI apps for filmmaking, an agentic coding assistant, video communication platforms, AI mode in search, and much more.

Microsoft's focus on AI agents for enterprises may be easier to deliver than Google's consumer focus on a universal AI assistant because Microsoft only has to get the tech right. Google has to change its whole business model too.

Microsoft is the latest tech powerhouse to adopt Google’s A2A protocol, which helps agents communicate and collaborate.

Whether you embrace it or not, AI is shaping the future of Google Search. Google is bringing AI Mode to Google Search for every U.S. user, beginning today. Google launched AI Overviews a year ago, which aims to answer your question before showing the traditional list of links.
