Google announced that it integrates its AI assistant, Google Gemini, with Google TV devices -Starting with TCL TVs later this year.
The expansion was announced on its Android show yesterday with a number of other new features. In addition to teasing a new look by Android 16, Google revealed that Gemini’s smarts are coming to Devices with Google TV, cars with built -in Google and Android Auto and its line with Wearo’s smartwatches.
Currently, Google is holding the exact roll-out date sub-wrapping, but the company has stated that Gemini support for Google TV will first be rolled out to TCL TVs with other devices to follow.
When Gemini debuts Google TV, it replaces the previous Google Assistant tool but will continue to offer content recommendations based on your voting commands. According to Google’s blog posts, you can use requests such as ‘Show Me Action movies that are age for kids’.
Gemini’s capabilities will reach beyond entertainment. You also have the freedom to put Gemini on your Google TV-not-recommended questions. For example, Google says Gemini will be able to “help your kids explore their endless questions about the solar system by answering questions and pulling up the perfect YouTube video to learn more”.
However, there have been some questions about when Google TV streamer will receive the same treatment.
No sign of Gemini to Google’s flagship flow unit
To many surprises, it turns out that Google TV streamer won’t be the launch unit for Gemini, nor has Google spoke about its plans to bring the AI tool to its own devices. So, as it stands, it’s a bit of a waiting game, but what knows about Google TV devices getting their long-awaited support for Gemini before the end of the year.
Owners of some of the best smart TVs with Google TV have been waiting for further messages since the company announced the next generation of Google TV with Gemini on CES 2025. At the same time, the company also revealed its new ‘surrounding state’, which has been improved by the introduction of its new proximity sensors to automatically adjust the display.
But Gemini’s future for Google TV streamer is still in our minds, and while we wait for further messages from Google, we get our eyes peeled for any updates that may grow up elsewhere.
