Google's Gemini AI is coming for your car, watch, and TV
Starting soon, Google Gemini will be available on your watch, in your car, and on your TV.
At The Android Show, an Android-focused mini event leading up to Google I/O, the tech giant announced that its Gemini AI model will be integrated into Wear OS, Android Auto and Google Built-in, and Google TV.
With Wear OS in the coming months, Google Pixel Watch users will be able to verbally give Gemini reminders or ask it to pull up event details, such as upcoming dinner reservations. Because of Gemini integration across Google Workspace apps, it can access information from your calendar and emails.

For drivers who like to get things done in their cars, senior Android UX director Guemmy Kim shared ways Gemini works with its car dashboard apps. Users can ask for summaries of texts they received, translate messages into other languages, and even ask for help cheating on their book club by asking for a synopsis of Pride and Prejudice and discussion points.
Indeed, the ability to cut corners in work and everyday life seemed to be one of Gemini's key selling points in the presentation. In an earlier part of the livestream, Senior Android Product Manager Rohan Shah demoed using Gemini to take a look at a long pre-event email. "I could have and should have gone through it myself, but I have Gemini here to help," said Shah.
Gemini will come to the Android Auto app first, and then to Google Built-In for cars manufactured with Google's operating system.
One area of our lives that doesn't ask anything from us is the TV, where Google is also adding Gemini. In the same way that streaming platforms like Netflix are adding new AI features, Gemini is coming to Google TV. The event touted potential use cases like using natural language to ask for custom movie recommendations or pulling up information and educational YouTube videos. This feature is also rolling out in the coming months, presumably as Android 16 goes live. Google also shared that Gemini will come to Android XR next year.
Of course, this was just the pre-Google I/O event focused on Android. Next week, we expect many, many more Gemini AI announcements from Google-land, so stay tuned.
