Google just introduced Gemini Intelligence in The Android Showthe great event dedicated to the green android operating system. The name, which inevitably reminds Apple Intelligencemakes it quite clear where the news is going: artificial intelligence. But here we are not just talking about creating emojis or generating images, but about something more ambitious, at least on paper. The company wants to change the way we use our devices.
So how does that promise hold up? Google assures that Gemini Intelligence will allow us to automate tasks, as can be seen in the example shown during the event and included in the cover image, reading the information that appears on our screen and interacting with it. It will also arrive with a navigation assistant for Google Chrome, make it easier to fill out forms, and update Gboard to help us shape our thoughts out loud. Let’s see in a little more detail what each new feature consists of.
Everything Gemini Intelligence brings to Android
Google says it has been working on automation features for months alongside several popular food and transportation apps. The goal is for Gemini Intelligence to be able to take care of certain tasks for us, not just answering questions, but acting within the device and some compatible applications. “Gemini takes care of the logistics so you can enjoy the moment,” the company says.
These are some of the examples that Google has shared:
- Reserve a bike in the front row for a spinning class
- Find a class program in Gmail
- Add to cart the books you need
Gemini Intelligence may also use the context of the screen or an image. The company proposes, for example, an open shopping list in a notes application. In that scenario, it would be enough to press and hold the power button to activate Gemini Intelligence and ask it by voice to create a shopping cart with those products. In theory, the system would take care of it. Another example is photographing the poster for an activity and asking them to search Expedia for a similar tour for six people.
Another important piece of Gemini Intelligence will be in Chrome. Google wants to make its browser on Android smarter starting at the end of June, with Gemini built in to help us research, summarize information, and compare content on the web. It is not just about reading a page and returning a summary, but about accompanying us in tasks that normally require jumping between several tabs or services.
In addition, Chrome will incorporate a function called auto browse, aimed at more mechanical tasks. Google gives examples of booking an appointment or a parking space. On paper, it is another step in the same direction: less manual interaction and more capacity of the system to take care of specific procedures.
Android autofill will also take a leap with Gemini Intelligence. So far, Autofill with Google has mostly served to save time in basic fields, but Google wants to take it further. The feature will be able to take advantage of Gemini’s personal intelligence to fill out more fields within apps and Chrome, even when forms are longer or have small boxes spread across the screen.
The promise is simple: that filling out forms from your mobile will no longer be such a burdensome task. Android may use relevant information from connected applications to fill in that data for us. In any case, Google emphasizes an important point: this integration will be strictly optional. Each user will decide if they want to connect Gemini with Autofill, and that connection can be activated or deactivated from the settings.
Gboard will also be updated with a new Gemini Intelligence feature called Rambler. The starting point is quite recognizable: Android already allows you to quickly convert voice to text, but we don’t speak the same way we write. We correct ourselves as we go, we repeat ideas, we leave half-sentences or we fill in the gaps with fillers. Rambler wants to take care of just that.
The idea is that you can speak naturally, without having to construct the perfect sentence before starting. The system will take the important parts of what you say and organize them into a clearer, more concise message. Google ensures that Gboard will clearly show when Rambler is activated and that the audio will only be used to transcribe in real time, without being stored or saved.
In addition, Rambler will be designed for multilingual conversations. Thanks to Gemini’s advanced model, you will be able to change languages within the same message and understand the context even if we mix several languages. Google uses a combination of English and Hindi as an example, but the idea is broader: that the message still sounds like us, just a little more polished.
10 GOOGLE APPS THAT COULD HAVE SUCCESSFUL
Which phones will be compatible with Gemini Intelligence
Google has made it clear that Gemini Intelligence will be an exclusive function of Android phones, something that we could already imagine due to its characteristics. Nothing about an application that allows you to use some of its new features on the iPhone. Now, even within the Android ecosystem, its deployment will also be limited: it will be focused on the “most advanced devices” and will arrive in phases.
According to official information, Gemini Intelligence will first arrive on compatible Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel phones as early as this summer. Later, at the end of the year, it will also land on other devices, such as smart watches, cars, glasses and laptops.
