Google Gemini Live: A Moon Landing Moment for AI on Phones? | nextpit Weekly Round-up

[View online](=) //WEEKLY ☰ ⊗ [News](=) [Reviews]( [Best Lists]( [Videos]() [Community]() Hi {NAME}, ​ In less than 90 minutes, Google showcased its dominance in the Artificial Intelligence landscape during the “Made by Google” keynote. The highlight? The Gemini Live, set to redefine the user experience on Google Pixel devices and potentially all Android phones. Google's expansive ecosystem allows the company to transform how we interact with and consume content. Imagine getting directions directly in your ear or receiving real-time essay feedback. The idea of having a private assistant integrated into our devices is appealing. However, Google's core value of “Don't be evil” stands as a reminder of the potential risks. Can we truly trust an advertising giant with our most intimate thoughts? Personally, I've been cautious with AI integration, primarily using ChatGPT with stringent privacy settings to limit AI learning from my behaviors. With Apple's AI advancements on the horizon, I anticipate adopting similar precautions. My concern isn't with AI itself, but with maintaining privacy and individuality. Can AI and I coexist without compromising these values? While I was impressed by Google's presentation, I remain hesitant to adopt Gemini Live. Yet, there's no denying the impressive capabilities Google has achieved. In a landscape filled with OpenAI, Galaxy AI, and Apple Intelligence, Gemini appears almost benign—both a positive and a potential concern. ​ Cheers to a peaceful Tuesday evening! ​ �€‹ ​ Camila Rinaldi Head of Editorial --------------------------------------------------------------- ​ //The Bottom Line Google Gemini Live: A Moon Landing Moment for AI on Smartphones?
