Recently, Google announced a series of new features to enhance the interactive experience of its AI assistant Gemini Live. These new features will allow users to have more natural and intuitive real-time conversations with the assistant, enhancing convenience in daily life.
First, Gemini Live will introduce a screen highlight feature. This means users can scan surrounding objects with their phone's camera, and the AI assistant will highlight relevant objects on the screen, helping users find the tools they need faster. For example, when you want to find the right tool for a project, simply point your phone at a pile of tools, and Gemini Live will directly guide you to the correct choice. This feature will launch on August 28 along with the newly released Pixel 10 device and will be pushed to other Android devices at the same time. It will then gradually expand to the iOS platform.
Second, Google will also launch new application integration features, allowing Gemini Live to interact with more applications, including SMS, phone calls, and clock. When discussing directions with Gemini and realizing that you are going to be late, you can interrupt the conversation at any time, for example: "This route is good, send a message to Alex that I'll be about 10 minutes late." At this point, Gemini will automatically draft a text message for you, improving communication efficiency.
Finally, Google has updated the audio model of Gemini Live, claiming it will "significantly improve" the assistant's voice performance in conversations, including key elements such as tone, rhythm, and pitch. In the future, Gemini will adjust its tone based on the content of the user's questions, for example, using a calmer voice when discussing tense topics. Additionally, users can adjust the speaking speed of Gemini, similar to the existing ChatGPT voice mode. Furthermore, if you ask Gemini to tell a story from the perspective of a specific character or historical figure, the assistant may even use an appropriate accent to make the narration more vivid and interesting.
These new features mark an important step forward for Google in enhancing the practicality and humanization of its AI assistant.
