Google is expanding its smart home solutions and the latest update shows that AI is playing an increasingly significant role here. Google Home is gaining new features related to Gemini, which aim to simplify device control and make it more natural. The biggest change is the expansion of language support, but that's just part of the new offerings. The update also improves communication with devices and introduces more intuitive controls. Overall, it is moving towards a home that actually "understands" what you are saying to it.
Gemini becomes more accessible and intelligent
Google introduces Spanish language support in Gemini for Home, starting m.in. in Mexico and expanding access in the USA and Canada. Additionally, AI is now available in children's accounts with parental controls, which means broader usage in daily life. At the same time, the system better understands commands – there's no need to use exact names of colours or devices, as Gemini can interpret more natural language, such as “ocean colour” or “moonlight.”
Greater control over the smart home
The updates also include more precise control of devices, from setting temperature and humidity to specific commands for appliances like ovens. Gemini recognises devices faster and distinguishes better, for example, a lamp from light, which translates into smoother operation. Additionally, more comprehensive news summaries are appearing in Live mode, as well as improvements to the Android application, enhancing the user experience with the system.
Google is developing smart home technology towards more natural and intelligent handling, where AI understands the user instead of requiring precise commands. This is another step towards a home that operates more "on its own" than on command.
