Google introduced the Pixel 8 smartphone series in October of this year, and the Pixel 9 lineup is expected in 2024. Although the upcoming Pixel series is not expected to be released for several months, a few rumors about the handsets have appeared online, including CPU and charging features.
According to a new source, the Mountain View, California-based tech giant is working on a new Pixel-exclusive Artificial Intelligence assistance, which could debut with the Pixel 9 series.
According to The Information, Google is developing Pixie, a Pixel-exclusive AI helper. According to the article, the new AI assistant would handle all of the present Google Assistant’s functions and more.
In 2024, the assistant will most likely be built into the Google Pixel 9 series. It should be noted that ‘Pixie’ could be an internal codename that differs from the final name.
According to the report, Pixie will merge data from many Google products and services, including Gmail and Maps, to deliver personalized assistance to users. It is believed to be capable of complicated and multimodal tasks such as directing someone to the nearest store where they may buy a product they photographed. The reported AI helper is expected to be powered by Gemini Nano.
According to the report, Google aims to expand Pixie beyond the flagship Pixel 9 series to lower-end phones as well as other devices such as wearables. It is unclear whether the AI assistant would be available for existing devices or only for future products.
