Episode Details

Google used its I/O 2026 developer conference to announce Gemini 3.5 Flash, Antigravity 2.0, and WebMCP, signaling a full pivot from AI that assists developers to AI agents that independently orchestrate code, run sandboxed terminal sessions, and coordinate parallel subagents across the entire software development lifecycle. The episode breaks down each announcement, the four-deployment-shape strategy, and what Google's control of Chrome and Android means for the coming platform wars over who owns the agentic developer stack.
