Summary

  • Google is introducing several new features for its AI assistant, Gemini Live, aimed at improving the user experience.
  • One new feature will allow the assistant to point out specific items on a user’s screen, using their smartphone camera to help make selections.
  • For instance, if a user is trying to choose the right tool for a project, they can show the options to the camera and it will highlight on the screen which one they should use.
  • Google is also launching new integrations for Gemini Live, so it can interact with more apps, including Messages, Phone and Clock.
  • The company is also releasing a new audio model which will enable the chatbot to use the key elements of human speech, adapting its tone and speech pattern to the user and context.
  • This includes adopting an accent for a “rich, engaging narrative” if the user asks a question that would suit this type of response.
