I can’t remember the last time I/O was interesting. I never feel like Google introduces something important or noteworthy.

This I/O is pretty important, IMO, as Google's reputation for being the best cloud for data science is on the line with ChatGPT eating their AI position and BigQuery's waning developer pull. Data is a large driver for companies to use Google Cloud, and without that they're in big trouble, IMO.

Hopefully this I/O gives folks more compelling reasons to use Google Cloud.

Better products and competition is good for the consumer.
