But the AI has to be properly trained, performant, and not annoying. Right now, Gemini in Android Auto is none of those things. Thus, it shouldn’t be seen in the light of day because it is creating negative impressions that could eventually kill this effort.

Gemini is coming for every part of your Google-led life, whether you like it or not. It’s even en route to the car, which I definitely do not like. Once it officially rolls out, I hope we’ll understand how to use Gemini from behind the wheel. The current demonstration of what it’s capable of doesn’t instill much hope in me.

We've got an early look at Gemini Live functioning on Android Auto, as Google continues to work on development under the hood.
