The Wikipedia article for I/O really underlines how sad it's become: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_I/O

It went from "Google's take on Apple's WWDC and launches" to "AI everywhere all at once". Like, look at how much awesome shit Google dropped between 2008 and 2020! Really sad.

To be clear, it's not just Google. This is happening to all of the big conferences. Nothing but AI. Okay, maybe not CES. But still.
