Google’s AI future demands trust — and your personal data

Google has big promises for its AI-powered future - and a lot of it depends on your trust. At I/O 2026, Google described a bunch of new tools that it claims will make your life easier.

Gemini Spark, Google's always-on AI agent, can help organize an upcoming event, while Daily Brief can offer a rundown of what to expect during your day. Google is even expanding access to Gmail's AI inbox, which can generate custom to-do lists and draft personalized replies based on your emails.
