I just watched this recap of Google I/O. I’m currently on holiday and didn’t/couldn’t watch it live—so glad Verge does recaps like these.

There are a number of really impressive features. Some are uniquely possible for Google, while others are simply exciting and innovative. A few are reminiscent of Black Mirror, evoking that famous quote from Jurassic Park: “scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

That said, the most impressive aspect was how many of the new products and features weren’t announced as “coming this fall,” “coming soon,” or “coming later this year.” Most of them were “launching today” on both iOS and Android—including a personalised context feature that Apple touted “lied” only they could deliver during WWDC last year. Yet no one has any idea when—or if—it will actually arrive on Apple devices.
