Google is pitching an AI agent ecosystem to consumers who may not buy it
Google showed off new AI agents at its I/O conference, designed to help users with tasks like staying updated on topics or managing digital life. These agents, like Information agents and Google Spark, are rolling out to users, but some are only for "AI-pilled" subscribers. The company said "traders are eyeing corporate earnings" for fresh direction.
