Farewell to Google's Virtual Assistant, Welcome to Gemini Live instead
Let's Dive Into Google's Gemini: The AI Assistant Upgrade
Get ready for an unparalleled AI experience with Google's Gemini! This buddy is about to shake things up in your smartphone world.
What's New?
At MWC 2025, Google unveiled some jaw-dropping enhancements for Gemini. Let's take a peek:
- Live Video Conversations: Ready for a Kinect moment? Gemini's live video feature lets you shoot the breeze with your new AI sidekick, allowing visual engagements based on real-time input tasks or queries[1].
- Screen Sharing: Streamline your interactions by sharing your screen during conversations. This turns your Gemini Assistant into a handy, on-screen guide for activities like online shopping or tech support[1].
All About Availability
Prepare to wave goodbye to Google Assistant on Android phones by year's end. The stage is set for the AI-powered experience upgrade, complete with fascinating features like live video and screen sharing[2][3]. Most Android devices are in for the ride, with the exception of older models running Android 9 or earlier with less than 2 GB of RAM[2].
More Gemini Perks
- Deep Research: Get instant access to this because-it's-free-for-all feature that mines the web for detailed reports on any topic[4][5].
- Gems: Easily become an AI expert on any subject without breaking a sweat. No coding needed! This feature was initially exclusive to Google One AI Premium subscribers but is now rolling out for everyone[5].
Personalization and App Integration
Say goodbye to generic AI responses. Gemini will connect with your fave Google apps (Search, Calendar, Notes, and more!) to generate tailor-made replies[4]. Users can invite Personalization into the mix by linking their Search history[4].
Gemini's Expansion
This AI Assistant isn't one-trick pony. It's dominating other devices too, such as smartwatches, vehicles, and home gizmos (like smart speakers and TV)[3][4].
A New Era for AI Assistant
Gemini is striving to be your more integrated and personalized AI accomplice. Its cutting-edge offerings and improved human-machine interaction are poised to redefine the user experience.
