Gemini AI could soon be integrated with the Bisto class of earbuds, which are designed to run Google Assistant. This exciting development was discovered in version 15.31 of the Google app.
Highlights:
- The timeline for the integration is currently unknown.
- Gemini AI was previously reported to be arriving on headphones.
- New Gemini AI features have recently been added to Google Chrome.
Gemini AI to Arrive on Earbuds
Google’s AI chatbot, Gemini, might soon be accessible directly through specific earbuds, allowing users to interact with the AI without needing their smartphones. Google has been expanding Gemini AI’s capabilities and integrating it into more of its products. Most Google apps now include Gemini tools, and recent reports suggest that the company plans to extend this integration to more devices. There are also rumors that Google will launch Pixel Buds Pro 2 later this year.
According to a report by 9to5Google, users might soon be able to use Gemini AI directly through their earphones. This potential integration was found in the code strings of Google app version 15.31. One of the strings contained the line, “Talk to Gemini on earbuds,” while another mentioned “assistant bisto gemini on buds notification” and “Your new AI assistant is on headphones.” These messages indicate that Gemini AI might be available on both earbuds and headphones that support Google Assistant.
Based on this information, it appears that Gemini AI will be available on Google Assistant-integrated earbuds and headphones. The main advantage of this integration is that users can access the AI chatbot hands-free, without needing to use their phone to type a prompt. Currently, even if a smartphone has Gemini as the default virtual assistant, saying “OK Google” activates Google Assistant while using earphones. This integration will replace that function so that Gemini can be activated directly through the paired earphones.
This feature has been hinted at before. In February, a beta version of the Google app contained a string of code suggesting that the Gemini mobile app was working on expanding its availability to headphones. The recent findings indicate that this functionality is getting closer to being released.
