Photo by Jennifer Pattison Tuohy / The Verge Google TV is getting a Gemini integration that’s supposed to make interacting with your TV “more intuitive and helpful,” the company announced at CES on Monday. With the update, which is set to arrive later this year, you’ll be able to search for content and ask questions without starting with “Hey Google,” as reported by Bloomberg and Android Police. As pointed out by Android Police, the integration will allow you to search for media by saying “What are the latest movies from Disney?” You can also ask more general questions such as, “What are the best places to visit in Asia in the summer?” and Google TV will show results from YouTube. The integration lets you interact with smart home devices as well, allowing you to view your video doorbell feed and more. Google brought similar Gemini-powered features to the Google TV Streamer it released last year. In addition to bringing Gemini to Google TV, the company is outfitting the TVs using its operating system with far-field microphones, according to Bloomberg and Android Police. This will let you use voice commands with your TV without speaking into your remote. Google TVs will also have proximity sensors that will detect when you’re close to the TV and show “personalized and informative widgets,” Android Police reports. Google isn’t alone in bringing AI to TVs. LG and Samsung announced that they’re getting in on the AI hype by bringing Microsoft’s Copilot assistant to their TVs, too.
