Following is the full text of the article:

On Wednesday, thousands of people gathered in mountain view, California, the kind Google I/O Developers Conference held at Headquarters for the first time. Google I/O happens in April, Facebook F8 Conference in June and Apple's WWDC Conference held between, it is trying to become the world's biggest software developer event.

The past few weeks, construction workers have been building a theme park on Google to allow participating developers can feel, experience, Google imagined a future based on artificial intelligence. Hold the I/O Developer Conference located at the Shoreline Ampitheatre Amphitheater, once to show Neil Young (Neil Young), "The Who" and Metallica (Metallica) is famous for its musical talent. I/O Assembly's host will be the new CEO of Google sangdaer·pichayi (Sundar Pichai), he will be the keynote with a full product demonstration, dazzle developers.

This ambitious agenda of the General Assembly on common for Google, the software giant as a driverless car the "moon landing project" sanctified, last week, the market value of its parent company Alphabet was even beyond Apple, climb to the top of the world's most valuable company on the throne again. Google conducted a massive restructuring last year, set up the Alphabet the parent company, while Pi Chayi became one of the world's most powerful technology executives, is responsible for establishing the strategic direction of the world's most valuable Internet companies. This year's I/O Conference Google Developer Conference, held for the first time following the restructuring, and therefore deserve particular attention.

Pi Chayi had previously hosted I/O Developer Conference. As executives in charge of Chrome and Android business, Pi Chayi had a good relationship with software developers. But this time, he will be the Google CEO Keynote. Up to two hours of speech on stage when the Pi Chayi, I/O stage, the General Assembly will be his "show", will also be his first real "personal performance" to site developers focused on his vision for the company.

CEO along·liewei cloud storage service providers (Aaron Levie) said: "according to his ideas about artificial intelligence, machine learning, and virtual reality, has long been stigmatized as Sandor on Google the company. However, this time was indeed his personal performance. ”

Pi Chayi for Google's vision comes from a core philosophy: we are moving step by step towards a world based on artificial intelligence, in other words, whenever we interact with the screen, such as smart phones, tablet computers, smart watches, virtual reality devices or smart refrigerator screen, no matter where we are, they always need to be super intelligent machines that invisible hand of help. In this world, Pi Chayi hope Google will be a Hyper-Intelligent Assistant, you can help users throughout the day, providing all the information you need to complete various tasks.

In April this year, Larry page (Larry Page) and Sergey Brin (Sergey Brin) wrote a letter on behalf of Google founders letter, Pi Chayi had explained this concept. Pi Chayi wrote: "looking to the future, the next step is to make ' equipment ' the concept gradually disappeared. ”

While Google has been a pioneer in the field of artificial intelligence, but Facebook, Microsoft and Amazon have announced efforts to become the digital hub of life plans. This means that, if it is to successfully achieve this goal, you need to collect huge amounts of data, using the highest level of intelligent algorithms.

Facebook will also be on the future progress in artificial intelligence, company founder Mark Zuckerberg (Mark Zuckerberg) artificial intelligence as an important part of its 10-year plan. To that end, Facebook proposed a number of projects, including one named "m" virtual personal assistants. Microsoft is testing a digital personal assistant and chat robot products to enhance interaction with the user. Even Amazon is betting on artificial intelligence, launched a new virtual assistant "Alexa"-the latter will Echo the user an essential figure in the family Center.

The well-known technology journalist shidifen·liewei (Steven Levy) said: "Google is an artificial intelligence company from the start and, with the increase investment in artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning, Google is an artificial intelligence company. Artificial intelligence becoming Alphabet subsidiary of Google's core business is not by accident, because it really would become a core part of Google's future strategy. At present, the fierce competition in the field of artificial intelligence. Basically, the world's largest companies and Google's strongest opponent, realize this is where they come to grips the battlefield ". Levy is also the author of inside Plex: Google how to think, work and change our lives book.

Another key battleground is virtual reality, this technology is doomed to become the focus of I/O Developers Conference this year. As with Zuckerberg and other tech executives, Pi Chayi virtual reality as is the next major computing platform, want to allow software developers to easily build a virtual reality experience. At the I/O Conference, he is expected to launch a program called "Android VR" virtual reality platform.

Google had previously released a cheap Cardboard virtual reality equipment that cost $ 20, smartphones as the screen of the device. Google is also developing a does not depend on smart mobile phones, computers and gaming consoles of virtual reality helmet, a move that will let Google and Facebook to compete. Facebook's virtual reality equipment Oculus has started shipping earlier in the year. In addition, Google also invested in augmented reality startups Magic Leap, the biggest goal is to make virtual reality becomes mainstream technology, used by as many people as quickly as possible.

Google released products at the I/O Conference it is regarded as a State secret, here are expected to be released Google products:

外媒：谷歌IO 2016大会将成皮查伊个人秀 - 谷歌IO 2016,虚拟现实,皮查伊 - IT资讯

北京时间5月18日消息，《今日美国报》网络版今天撰文指出，一年一度的谷歌I/O开发者大会将在本周三举行，大会主题预计与改变科技行业未来的两大趋势有关：人工智能和虚拟现实。另外，本次I/O大会还将成为谷歌CEO桑达尔·皮查伊（Sundar Pichai）的“个人秀”，让他有机会向现场开发者集中阐述他对谷歌的愿景。

以下为文章全文：

周三，数千人将齐聚加州山景城，这也是谷歌首次在总部举办I/O开发者大会。谷歌I/O大会恰好在4月份Facebook F8大会和6月份苹果WWDC大会之间举行，它正竭力成为世界上规模最大的软件开发者盛会。

过去几个星期，施工人员一直在兴建一个以谷歌为主题的公园，以便让参会的开发者们可以身临其境，体验谷歌想象的一个基于人工智能的未来。举办本次I/O开发者大会的地点设在Shoreline Ampitheatre圆形剧场，这里曾以展现了尼尔·杨（Neil Young）、“The Who”和金属乐队（Metallica）的音乐才华而闻名于世。I/O大会的主持人将是谷歌新任CEO桑达尔·皮查伊（Sundar Pichai），他将用一个充斥着产品演示的主题演讲，让开发者们眼花缭乱。

这种雄心勃勃的大会议程对谷歌来说再常见不过了，这家软件巨头因为无人驾驶汽车这样的“登月项目”而被神化，其母公司Alphabet的市值在上周甚至一度超越苹果，再次登顶全球市值最高的公司宝座。去年谷歌进行了大规模重组，成立了Alphabet这家母公司，同时让皮查伊成为世界上最具权势的科技高管之一，负责制定全球市值最高的互联网公司的战略方向。今年的I/O大会也是谷歌重组后首次召开的开发者大会，因此尤其值得关注。

皮查伊之前也曾主持过I/O开发者大会。作为负责Chrome和Android业务的高管，皮查伊与软件开发者之间的关系很好。但这一次，他将作为谷歌CEO发表主题演讲。当皮查伊登台发表长达两小时的讲话时，I/O大会舞台将成为他的“秀场”，同时也将是他第一次真正的“个人表演”，向现场开发者集中阐述他对谷歌的愿景。

云存储服务商CEO阿隆·列维（Aaron Levie）说：“根据他有关人工智能、机器学习和虚拟现实的观点，谷歌这家公司早已打上了桑德尔的烙印。不过，这一次的确是他的个人表演。”

皮查伊对谷歌的愿景源于一个核心理念：我们正一步步走向一个基于人工智能的世界，也就是说，无论我们与什么屏幕进行互动，如智能手机、平板电脑、智能手表、虚拟现实设备或智能冰箱的屏幕，无论我们身处何地，都始终需要超智能机器这双无形之手的帮助。在这个世界里，皮查伊希望谷歌能成为一个超智能助手，可以全天帮助用户，提供人们完成各种任务所需要的一切信息。

今年4月，在以拉里·佩奇（Larry Page）和谢尔盖·布林（Sergey Brin）的名义写的一封谷歌年度创始人书信中，皮查伊曾阐述过这种理念。皮查伊写道：“展望未来，下一步就是让‘设备’这一概念逐渐消失。”

尽管谷歌多年来一直是人工智能领域的先驱，但Facebook、微软和亚马逊都对外公布了努力成为人们生活数字中心的计划。这意味着，若想圆满实现这一目标，就需要收集海量数据，运用智能化水平最高的算法。

Facebook也将未来押在人工智能的进步上，公司创始人马克·扎克伯格（Mark Zuckerberg）将人工智能作为其10年规划的重要组成部分。为此，Facebook提出了多个项目，其中包括一个名为“M”的虚拟个人助手。微软也在测试数字个人助手和聊天机器人产品，以加强与用户的互动。甚至连亚马逊也押注人工智能，推出了新的虚拟助手“Alexa”——后者将Echo变成用户家中一个必不可少的数字中心。

知名科技记者史蒂芬·列维（Steven Levy）说：“谷歌从一开始就是一家人工智能公司，随着它加大对人工智能、机器学习和深度学习的投入，谷歌更加是一家人工智能公司了。人工智能成为Alphabet旗下子公司谷歌的核心业务，绝非偶然，因为它的确会成为谷歌未来战略的核心部分。目前，人工智能领域的竞争相当激烈。基本上，全球最大的公司和谷歌最强劲的对手，都意识到这就是一个让他们殊死搏斗的战场”。列维还著有《走进Plex：谷歌如何思考、工作以及改变我们的生活》一书。

另一个重要战场是虚拟现实，这种技术注定会成为今年I/O开发者大会的焦点。与扎克伯格和其他科技行业高管一样，皮查伊也将虚拟现实看作是下一个重要的计算平台，希望让软件开发者可以轻松打造虚拟现实体验。在I/O大会上，他估计会推出一个名为“Android VR”的虚拟现实平台。

谷歌之前曾推出过售价20美元的廉价虚拟现实设备Cardboard，该设备将智能手机当作屏幕。谷歌还在开发一种不依赖于智能手机、计算机和游戏主机的虚拟现实头盔，此举将让谷歌与Facebook展开激烈竞争。Facebook的虚拟现实设备Oculus已在今年早些时候开始出货。此外，谷歌还投资了增强现实创业公司Magic Leap，其最大的目标就是让虚拟现实成为主流技术，尽快被尽可能多的人使用。

谷歌把它即将在I/O大会上发布的产品视作国家机密，以下即是外界预计谷歌即将发布的产品：

Android N：谷歌将推出Android操作系统的最新版本。谷歌已经宣布这个名为“Android N”的新版本将提供分屏功能，这不仅可以让用户轻松切换不同应用，而且还能让用户直接回复通知，当设备屏幕关闭时，还能减少因使用应用而产生的电池电量。

Project Tango：据彭博社报道，谷歌计划扩大这个项目的规模。该项目利用安卓智能手机和平板电脑中的摄像头和深度传感器，用3D成像技术重塑用户周围环境。谷歌希望软件开发者能为Project Tango开发虚拟现实应用和服务。

智能家居：自去年春天以来，谷歌就很少谈及其智能家居平台。Brillo是一款可运行智能家居设备的软件，Weave则是一种用于帮助设备之间互动的语言。

消息与聊天机器人：据说谷歌正在开发新的消息应用，让用户可以与朋友和聊天机器人进行交流。

其他产品：预计谷歌还会对Android Wear、Android Auto以及Spotlight Stories等产品进行小幅升级。
