Google Cloud Next It is the annual Google conference focused on Cloud innovationwhich this year is celebrated from April 9 to 11 at Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. It is expected that More than 30,000 people They attend the 2025 edition of an event that is oriented to professionals and companies in the industry, but in which there are also novelties that will impact the final services that the consumer receives. This year, again, the AI is the protagonist in the services that Google offers through the infrastructure of its cloud and, among other novelties, there are new owner hardware with which the company wants to rival Nvidiamore in Google Docs and Google Sheets And a new language model within the family Gemini.
Ironwood, Google’s new TPU
Nvidia can be the main hardware company for AI, but not the only one. Google develops its TPU chips for the processing of AI for 7 years and today presents Its seventh generation, Ironwoodbuilt from scratch for scale inference. This new TPU can climb more than 9,000 chips by Podthis is called each group of chips for large -scale processing, offering a processing capacity for 42.5 Exaflops for each.
The world number one superorder, The Captain, supports 1.7 Exaflops by Podwhich means that Ironwood offers More than 24 times the computation power of El Captain. In addition, Ironwood is twice more energetically than the sixth generation of TPU, Trilliumand almost 30 times more efficient than the first TPU in the 2018 cloud.
Google Docs and Google Sheets
In Google Docsartificial intelligence capabilities will be incorporated to help users to refine your texts With the new function Help me refine. This offers suggestions to strengthen arguments, improve the structure and clarify key points. In addition, you can generate a document audio summaryideal to listen while other tasks are performed or to create podcast versions of a text, as can be done with Notebooklm.
On the other hand, Google Sheets will receive a new function called Help me analyzean experience promoted by the automatically analyze the data of a spreadsheetshowing the main ideas without having to use complex formulas or create graphics. This tool promises Democratize data analysismaking it accessible to users without advanced technical knowledge.
A new member in the Gemini family: 2.5 flash
One of the most outstanding novelties is the announcement of Gemini 2.5 Flashthe most recent and economical artificial intelligence model of Google. This model is designed for offer quick responses in high -volume situationsas interactions with customers. You can also generate document summaries or news in real time and help with basic programming tasks.
What distinguishes Gemini 2.5 flash is its ability to Adapt the depth of your reasoning according to the complexity of the questionallowing companies to control performance based on their budgets. This could translate into more fluid and efficient experiences in various online services.
VERTEX AI, with generative models for image, video, music and voice
Google Cloud is enhancing VERTEX AIits comprehensive platform for Build and manage artificial intelligence applicationsin which significant improvements have been made in the generative models available.
Now, in addition to Image 3 For the generation of images, Chirp 3 for voice and I see 2 For video, it adds Lyriaa capable model of generating music from text instructions. This makes Vertex ai The only platform that brings together generative models in all modalities (Video, image, voice and music) and that can work together.
In a demonstration for media, A video accompanied by music was created from a single photograph of Las Vegas. They also showed video editing capabilities assisted by the in which you could select the type of plane that you want, as an aerial view taken by the camera of a drone or the Elimination of unwanted elements (A person who crosses the background) of a video.
AI agents
IA agents also have a central prominence in Google Cloud Next. An AI agent is an intelligent system capable of thinking about several steps and work through different softwares and systems to perform a task on the username. Google Cloud is facilitating the construction and management of these agents through VERTEX AI and a new agent development kit (ADK). The idea is that these agents can help us with complex tasks, from planning trips to managing customer service problems.
In addition, the Interoperability among agents from different supplierswhich means that they could collaborate to perform even more complex tasks. Google also presented Agent Spacea tool that will allow any employee, without the need for technical experience, interact with AI agents to find information and automate tasks.
