Summary

  • Google has started to roll out its Gemini Live update, which enables cameras and screensharing functions on Pixel 9 phones and Samsung’s Galaxy S25.
  • This will allow users to point their cameras at something and ask the AI chatbot questions about whatever it is that’s in frame.
  • Alternatively, users can use the screensharing option to get advice on shopping websites, or for any other queries.
  • The roll out is expected to extend to other Android devices, although users will need to be a paid Gemini Advanced user to access the features.
  • It was first demo’d at Google’s I/O Developer conference in May 2023 as part of the ‘Project Astra’ initiative.
