It will soon be time for the tech world to turn its attention to Mountain View again. Google has revealed the date of this year's I/O conference. The event is scheduled for May 14.
Google for Developers revealed the date in an annoying way. He asked people to complete a tedious logic puzzle (think of the route puzzles of bioshock). Once enough people have kindly finished all 15 levels and taken a marble to its destination again and again, Google announced when the I/O will take place. This year it will again be a one-day event.
While I/O is a developer conference, there is always a lot of consumer interest. The keynote, for example, is sure to provide a look at some upcoming Pixel and Android features. We'll also likely learn of Google's next steps in the fast-moving ai space (let's hope it doesn't rename its chatbots again). Of course, we'll have full coverage of the keynote and everything you need to know about I/O here on Engadget.
