Rumors are swirling within the Pi Network community that the company may be partnering with Google’s Gemini AI, following a series of cryptic clues and a notable panel appearance by Pi Network co-founder Nicolas Kokkalis at Consensus 2025.

The speculation reached a fever pitch after Pi Network teased an upcoming announcement related to generative AI, scheduled for Pi2Day on June 28, 2025.

Nicolas Kokkalis Joins GenAI Panel at Consensus 2025

Fueling the speculation was Kokkalis’ appearance at a Consensus 2025 panel focused on generative AI. This move surprised many, considering Pi Network’s blockchain-first identity. It prompted questions about whether Pi might soon introduce AI-driven features—or something even bigger.

Shortly after, Pi Network posted on X (formerly Twitter):

“How is GenAI related to Pi Network? Why did one of two Pi Founders, Nicolas Kokkalis, participate in a GenAI panel at Consensus 2025? Answer on Pi2Day (6.28.2025):”

The message sparked a wave of theories online, ranging from an internal AI product called “PiAI” to a full-fledged collaboration with Google.

Gemini AI Icon Allegedly Spotted in Pi App

Adding more fuel to the fire, a few users reported seeing the Gemini AI logo inside the Pi Network app. One widely circulated screenshot showed what appeared to be the Gemini icon. Another user remarked that the star symbol in Pi’s teaser closely resembled the Gemini branding.

Community groups such as Pi Barter Mall quickly amplified the claims, with some asserting a partnership was already in place. Others speculated that Pi Network might be building a proprietary AI tool, tentatively dubbed PiAI.

History of AI Mentions and Ongoing Speculation

This isn’t the first time Pi Network has expressed interest in AI. Over the past year, the project has spoken publicly about integrating artificial intelligence into its platform to enhance decentralized services and improve user experience.

The team has also participated in industry panels discussing the intersection of AI and blockchain—yet, there’s been no official confirmation of any collaboration with Google.

Even so, anticipation is building for Pi2Day, when the project is expected to make an announcement that could validate—or completely dismiss—these growing rumors.

Despite the excitement, many community members are urging caution. One user wisely noted, “Let’s wait and see. No need to rush to believe anything.”
