Following in the footsteps of AI ventures of Samsung and Apple, Google too stepped up its AI game with Gemini and AI offerings announced at its Made by Google event commenced and concluded yesterday in California.
Android 15 release date and features
Among the AI features that accumulated a substantial reputation for Google at a hefty scale, Google also announced Android 15 as the primary pillar of new Gemini capabilities, which is also at the back of the yet-to-launch Gemini Live.
Alongside a more powerful Gemini, the latest Android 15 also encapsulates other tools such as photo editing, phone calls, and more.
If you're desperate to witness the release of the Android 15 update, then the wait could get more desolate as Android 15 is currently undergoing the testing phase, precisely having public beta testing since April 2024.
Considering the usual release timeline of Android updates, Android 15 should be released publicly by now. And since Google did not even give Android 15 space in the talk it seems Google is still preoccupied with some bugs to fix.
Pixel 9's Pixel Screenshots, Add Me
The Add Me tool on Pixel 9 does what no other smart feature did, grouping a group photo with the person behind the camera to produce an image with everyone in the frame.
Reminiscent of Microsoft's Recall, the Pixel Screenshots feature uses AI to process screenshots and help users find them later with simple text prompts.
Google's new Call Notes, Reimagine features on Pixel 9
The Call Notes feature offers a comprehensive compilation of an important call's summary by utilising the power of AI. Users can activate it from the call screen UI on their Pixel phones.
Regarding the Reimagine feature which was announced with the Pixel 9 series, it allows users to "reimagine" or edit a part of a picture with the help of AI. By just tapping a specific area of an image and typing what they want, Reimagination can be made the most of.
