Gemini CLI has introduced subagents, specialized expert agents that handle complex or high-volume tasks in isolated context windows to keep the primary session fast and focused. These agents can be customized via Markdown files, run in parallel to boost productivity, and are easily invoked using the @agent syntax for targeted delegation. This architecture prevents "context rot" by consolidating intricate multi-step executions into concise summaries for the main orchestrator.

Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS is now available across Google products.

Prepay billing is now available in Google AI Studio for the Gemini API.

AI Max is moving out of beta, with improved performance quality across targeting and creative capabilities along with more enhanced controls.

The Google Cloud AI Agent Bake-Off highlights a shift from simple prompt engineering to rigorous agentic engineering, emphasizing that production-ready AI requires a modular, multi-agent architecture. The post outlines five key developer tips, including decomposing complex tasks into specialized sub-agents and using deterministic code for execution to prevent probabilistic errors. Furthermore, it advises developers to prioritize multimodality and open-source protocols like MCP to ensure agents are scalable, integrated, and future-proof against rapidly evolving model capabilities.

Google I/O returns May 19–20 to showcase major updates in AI, Android, Chrome, and Cloud, beginning with a keynote on the "agentic era" of development. The event will focus on new tools designed to automate complex workflows and simplify the creation of high-quality, AI-ready applications. Attendees can register to access live sessions, technical demos, and professional development resources both live and on-demand.
