Gemini is now the ubiquitous AI assistant

In the presentation of the three new Samsung phones The technology giant was the common denominator of many of the Galaxy Unpacked moments. Gemini is going to maintain a good part of the artificial intelligence functions of Korean mobile phones, just as it is going to do in the Pixel 9 with a wide variety of new features that Google just promoted.

These new experiences based on generative artificial intelligence aim to convert The Pixel 9 in more “AI” mobiles and thus continue ‘fighting’ against OpenAI in a fight between the two that seems to have no end. The prominence of Gemini in the new Galaxy S25 is another example of the crucial moment that Google is going through before the OpenAI steamroller with its ChatGPT.

In an advertisement on store.google.com you can read “The new functions of Gemini Live and Rodea to search on Pixel 9 mobiles”, and they will encourage users of Google smartphones play in the same league that the next owners of the new Galaxy S25; Just the opposite of last year with the premiere of Rodea para Busca, which was exclusively for the Galaxy S24 for a few weeks.

The first new feature is the power ability send content to Gemini to ask any questions, or have a chat to give more context to a video on YouTube or any type of documents as well as images. Best of all, it can be done with the natural conversation offered by Google’s AI, so the interaction can be more enriching than doing it through text:

• Images– Add an image to the conversation and Gemini Live will offer detailed information and suggestions and can help resolve problems in real time.
• Files– You can share documents and have a discussion about them to extract important information or key points.
• Videos: A conversation with Gemini about a YouTube video with all kinds of details.

The Gemini interface has been redesigned conveniently to add a button to include that type of content as a photo from the gallery or take a new one; similar to what Google Lens can offer.

There are more important functions in this sense, such as the possibility of being able to ask about what is seen on the screen when taking a screenshot, taking another one on a PDF from the Google Files app and the same, but with the YouTube app. Gemini is going to be that omnipresent assistant to demand its appearance at all times in a very simple way.

And once the content is uploaded, a button will appear where you can read it. “Talk to Live about this” on the same interface, so that when you press it, the AI ​​assistant appears with the attached content appearing in the center of the screen and the two pause and cancel buttons just below in the familiar Gemini Live interface.

This great novelty is deployed today at Pixel 9 series, as in the Galaxy S24 and S25although in EL ESPAÑOL – El Androide Libre the Gemini update has not appeared in the Google Play Store. For the rest of the Pixel it will arrive with a ‘soon’.

Gemini already does several things at the same time

Next up will be the new ability Project Astra screen sharing and video streaming capabilities on Gemini. The technology giant had its moment to share what the interface is like today and will be available in the following months through the Gemini app on the Pixel and S25.

Another novelty for the Pixel is the deployment that is being carried out today with Deep Research to Gemini Advanced subscribers in the mobile version after introducing it last month in the web client. All compatible Pixel phones will receive it in the following days.

A very productive day for Google from your website and from now on you can ask Gemini to use multiple extensions at once from a single prompt and the new capabilities of Rodea to search, which are both summarized in this way:

• You can now ask Gemini to do several things at the same time in different apps: from finding entertainment venues on Google Maps and sending them to a friend via Google Messages.
