Google’s I/O keynote focused heavily on its new AI assistant, Gemini, which impressed with its capabilities in the Android space. The upcoming replacement for Google Assistant, Gemini will integrate seamlessly into various aspects of the user’s life.
One significant feature is its assistant takeover in Android, where users will be able to ask Gemini to perform tasks such as accessing bike manuals and watching YouTube videos on their behalf. This demonstrates Gemini’s potential to handle complex tasks beyond what current Google Assistant can do.
Gemini will also incorporate a proactive approach by recognizing users’ needs, such as studying for exams or identifying tools required for projects. These features aim to make the AI assistant more personalized and intuitive.
In the coming weeks, Gemini Live will integrate with other Google services like Maps, Calendar, Tasks, and Keep, allowing users to add events and utilize information from these platforms seamlessly.
