Google has announced that it will integrate Gemini, the company’s new large language model, into the Pixel 8 smartphones, following a successful rollout to the Pixel 8 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S24. The Pixel 8 will incorporate Gemini Nano, a version of the model designed to run locally on personal devices, aiming to enhance the overall AI performance. This change comes after Google's initial statement about the Pixel 8's inability to support on-device Gemini due to hardware limitations, which was later reconsidered. The Gemini-powered features, such as the Recorder app's improved summarization tool and Gboard's Smart Reply, are expected to bring significant benefits to users. Additionally, there are discussions about Apple possibly integrating Google's AI into iPhones, indicating a notable industry development. Though Gemini has faced criticism for generating inaccurate historical images, its potential impact on smartphones is worth watching for in the future.
