Your living room is about to get a whole lot smarter. We’re thrilled to announce that Gemini, our most capable and conversational AI assistant, is now coming to Google TV. This isn’t just a simple update; it’s a fundamental shift in how you’ll interact with your television, making it more intuitive, helpful, and personal than ever before.
For years, Google Assistant has been a convenient tool on your TV, helping you with basic commands like “Play The Office on Peacock.” But Gemini takes that experience to a whole new level. Built for free-flowing conversations, Gemini understands complex, nuanced requests, just like you would with a friend.
Effortless Entertainment, Personalized for You
Movie night debates are a thing of the past. With Gemini on Google TV, finding the perfect show for everyone is as simple as asking. Imagine this:
“Hey Google, find me something to watch with my partner. I like action movies, but they prefer romantic comedies.”
Gemini will understand the different tastes and suggest a film that hits the sweet spot, like a rom-com with an action twist or a fast-paced drama with a strong romantic subplot.
But the entertainment features don’t stop there. Gemini can also:
- Catch you up on a series: Forgot what happened in the last season of Outlander? Just ask, and Gemini will give you a quick summary so you can dive right into the new season.
- Find a show with a vague description: Can’t remember the name of that new hospital drama everyone’s talking about? Just describe it, and Gemini will surface a few options, like “The Pitt.”
- Answer follow-up questions: Once you get a recommendation, you can ask for more details, like “What are the reviews for that show?” or “Who’s in the cast?”
Beyond the Binge-Watch: Learning and Life on the Big Screen
Gemini on Google TV is not just for finding entertainment. It brings all of its powerful AI capabilities to the largest screen in your home, turning your TV into a hub for learning and productivity.
- Homework help: Parents and kids can work on a school project together. Ask Gemini to “Explain why volcanoes erupt to my third grader,” and it will provide a clear, easy-to-understand explanation, complete with supporting YouTube videos to bring the topic to life.
- Learn a new skill: Thinking about picking up a new hobby? Ask Gemini, “How do I learn guitar as a beginner?” and it will provide helpful, step-by-step guidance and even pull up instructional videos from YouTube.
- Kitchen companion: Looking for a quick dessert recipe for a potluck? Just ask Gemini, “What’s a dessert I can make in less than an hour?” and it will give you ideas and a video guide to follow along with.
The Gemini Rollout and What’s Next
The rollout of Gemini on Google TV begins today on the TCL QM9K series. We’re excited to announce that it will also be coming to more devices later this year, including the Google TV Streamer, Walmart onn. 4K Pro, and upcoming 2025 models from Hisense and TCL.
This is just the beginning. As we continue to integrate Gemini across our products, from Google TV to our browsers and mobile devices, we’re creating a seamless and powerful AI ecosystem. We believe that Gemini’s ability to engage in natural, conversational interactions will make your TV—and your entire smart home—more helpful and intuitive than ever before. So, grab your remote, say “Hey Google,” and start the conversation.
