Tech News from the World of Google: AI Integration Deepens, Pixel 10 Impresses
Chandigarh, Punjab – As of mid-September 2025, Google continues to aggressively integrate advanced artificial intelligence across its product ecosystem, from search to hardware. The tech giant’s recent announcements and upcoming releases signal a clear focus on more predictive, helpful, and seamlessly integrated user experiences. Here’s a roundup of the top Google tech news.
Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro Launch Imminent with “AI Core” Focus
Anticipation is at a fever pitch for Google’s annual hardware event next month, where the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro are set to be unveiled. Leaks and industry insider reports suggest the new flagship phones will be powered by the next-generation Tensor G5 chip, designed with a dedicated “AI Core.” This new architecture is expected to bring a revolutionary leap in real-time on-device processing for features like the camera’s Real-Tone imaging, live translation, and a more sophisticated Google Assistant that can handle complex, multi-step verbal commands without fault. Rumors also point to a significant upgrade in battery technology, promising a true “all-day” battery life even with heavy 5G and AI feature usage.
Android 16 Rolls Out with Enhanced Privacy and Cross-Device Connectivity
The stable version of Android 16, codenamed “Pistachio Ice Cream,” has officially started its rollout to Pixel devices this week. The update focuses on two key areas: enhanced user privacy and seamless connectivity. A new “Privacy Dashboard” gives users a minute-by-minute log of which apps are accessing their camera, microphone, and location data. The most talked-about feature is the expanded “Continuity” function, which allows users to seamlessly switch tasks between their Android phone, tablet, and Chromebook, similar to Apple’s ecosystem. A phone call can be answered on a Chromebook, or a document started on a tablet can be finished on a phone with a single tap.
Google Search Evolves: Introducing “Live Explore”
Google has begun testing a new feature in its search results called “Live Explore.” Using a combination of Google Lens and augmented reality, users can point their camera at a landmark, restaurant, or even a plant, and have relevant information overlaid directly onto their screen. In cities where it’s being tested, pointing your phone at a street can bring up real-time information on restaurant availability, bus schedules, and historical facts about buildings, transforming the search bar into a real-world discovery tool.
Waymo Reaches 10 Million Fully Autonomous Miles
Waymo, Google’s self-driving car subsidiary, announced a major milestone this week, having completed over 10 million miles of fully autonomous driving (with no human driver behind the wheel) across its operating cities in the United States. The company is now petitioning regulators to expand its commercial ride-hailing service to several new metropolitan areas, signaling growing confidence in the safety and reliability of its technology. This achievement marks a significant step forward in the journey towards mainstream autonomous transportation.
Google Cloud Unveils New Tools to Democratize AI for Businesses
At the recent Google Cloud Next conference, the company unveiled a suite of new tools aimed at making it easier for businesses of all sizes to build and deploy their own AI models. A new “Vertex AI Studio” provides a low-code/no-code environment where developers can use pre-trained Google models and customize them with their own data, significantly lowering the barrier to entry for creating sophisticated AI applications. This move is seen as a direct challenge to competitors like Microsoft’s Azure AI and Amazon’s SageMaker.
