Recently, there has been a growing focus on artificial intelligence (AI) in every field, and this is increasingly evident in automotive manufacturers, especially as existing AIs have reached advanced levels of intelligence that enable them to provide unique services that, in many cases, outperform humans.
Google dominates a significant portion of in-car user interfaces through Android Auto. Some leaks have indicated that Google Gemini’s AI will soon arrive in Android Auto over the coming months.
The leaks also indicate that Google is actively working to replace Google Assistant with conversational AI in the car’s infotainment system. If this happens, Android Auto is expected to offer significant improvements in driver assistance, interaction, and the automation of certain tasks.
Google’s goal in adding Gemini to Android Auto is to provide a seamless experience for the driver and passengers, and the latest beta versions of Android Auto (13.5) already reveal that Gemini integration is well advanced.
Adding artificial intelligence to Android Auto isn’t difficult for a giant company like Google, but the company faced significant criticism after launching its own project, Gemini. The company was accused of misrepresenting the capabilities of its AI program to distract from ChatGPT, which dominated the news.
Artificial intelligence is a true revolution essential to humanity, but this time, the West won’t have absolute control. China has launched several AI programs, and Chinese automakers may abandon Google services in the future.
