A Smarter Home: Google Replaces Assistant with Gemini

Google is set to replace Google Assistant with its new Gemini AI on smart speakers and displays starting in October. The new assistant will offer a more natural, context-aware interaction, allowing it to handle complex and multi-step commands. A new feature called Gemini Live will enable continuous, personalised conversations. Initially available to a limited number of users for testing, Gemini will have both a free version and a premium subscription for advanced functionalities.

Google AI Goes Global: New Features and a Wider Reach

Google has expanded its AI Mode to over 180 countries and introduced new features to enhance its functionality. These include a powerful "agentic capability" that allows the AI to perform complex, multi-step tasks like booking a restaurant. The update also adds a new personalised response feature that uses a user's history for more relevant answers, as well as a "Share" button for easy communication. This move signifies Google's focus on making AI an active assistant rather than a passive information source.
