At this year’s CES, Google announced upcoming AI capabilities for Google TV, powered by its Gemini models. These enhancements aim to provide a more intuitive and helpful user experience.
The integration will allow users to interact with their TV using natural language. This will simplify content discovery, allowing for searches using conversational queries. Users will also be able to ask questions on various topics, such as travel or history, and receive relevant video results alongside textual information.
Beyond search and information retrieval, the Gemini-powered Google TV will offer features like generating customized artwork, controlling smart home devices through the TV interface, and providing a summary of daily news.
These new features, driven by AI technology and designed to improve the functionality and interactivity of Google TV, are scheduled to begin rolling out later this year on select Google TV devices. The update signifies a move towards a more seamless and integrated home entertainment experience.
