Google is doubling down on the agentic age, and change starts from within.
“Today, about 75% of all new code at Google is now AI-generated and approved by engineers, up from 50% last time,” Chief Executive Officer Sundar Pichai said in a post on ‘The Keyword’ on Wednesday. “Now we’re truly moving toward agentic workflows. Our engineers are forming fully autonomous digital task forces, eliminating agents, and achieving incredible things.”
Pichai’s blogpost heralds Google Cloud Next26 – an annual flagship conference where the search giant showcases its latest innovations in cloud computing, artificial intelligence, security and data analytics. This year’s focus is Gemini Enterprise – an end-to-end system for the agentic age – which has seen a 40% increase in paid monthly active users on a sequential basis, according to Pichai.
Pichai added, “Through this rapid growth, we have seen how every employee in every organization can become a creator….” “It’s an incredible change, but it comes with complexity. The conversation is ‘Can we create an agent?’ Has started from. ‘How do we manage thousands of them?’
To that end, Google has launched the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, which aims to provide a secure, full-stack “connective tissue” between data, people, and goals to customize agents.
Google is building that “connective tissue” within its own ecosystem.
Recently, a complex code migration by agents and engineers was completed six times faster than it was a year ago with engineers alone. The Gemini app on macOS was built using AntiGravity – Google’s own “agent-first” platform where autonomous AI agents can plan, write code, and test applications in the browser with minimal human intervention.
