Get ready for a busy week. Today was day one of Microsoft's Build conference, where we heard a lot about the cloud and AI. Microsoft Build continues tomorrow with another keynote presentation, where we'll probably hear more about Windows. Right after it ends, Google's I/O conference kicks off, and we should get the first big details about Android P.

For the most part, these aren't going to be features that'll be available to everyone by the end of the week — though there'll probably be some betas. But these aren't far-out concepts, either: Microsoft and Google will be talking about new features, designs, and services we'll likely see on our phones and laptops by the end of the year. So check back over the next few days for some early looks.
