At this year's CES show, Google announced a major innovation that integrates Gemini AI technology into Google TV, aiming to improve the intuitiveness and convenience of users' interactions with TVs. The update is expected to be launched within this year, when users will be able to search for content directly through voice without the need to use the traditional "Hey, Google" wake-up word, which will greatly improve the user experience.

The new feature allows users to search in natural language, such as asking “What are the latest Disney movies?” In addition, users can ask a wider range of questions like “What are the best places to travel to Asia in the summer?” Google TV will display relevant results from YouTube based on the query. At the same time, users can interact with smart home devices through smart voice assistants, such as viewing video doorbell screens or adjusting lights.
To achieve these features, Google will also configure a far-field microphone for TVs using its operating system, so users can control the TV through voice commands without speaking to the remote control. In addition, Google TV will also be equipped with a proximity sensor that can display personalized information widgets such as weather forecasts or news stories when users approach the TV.
It is worth mentioning that Google is not the only company to introduce artificial intelligence technology to TV. LG and Samsung also said they will cooperate with Microsoft to introduce Copilot Assistant into their own TV products to further promote the intelligent development of TVs.
The launch of this new technology will make the home entertainment experience more intelligent and convenient, and users can more easily obtain information and enjoy richer content.
