After many years, Google finally bid bye to its famous Chromecast device and announced the launch of its new Google TV Streamer. And this time, they packed it with some new AI features powered by Gemini. Let us now take a look at a few cool AI tricks this new TV Streamer from Google can do.
Google TV Streamer’s AI Features
Google introduced a streaming device: Google TV Streamer that can provide improved personalized streaming and smart home experience for consumers. It has many interesting features like AI summarized reviews for shows and movies, find my remote feature, voice-controlled ambient mode and many more.
It will be available in the markets from September 24 for $99.99 and is open for pre-orders now.
1) Personalized Movies and Shows Recommendations
Ever taken more than an hour to select a show or a movie that you like to watch? If you suffer from silly problems like this, Google TV Streamer is here to help you. Based on your previous watch preferences and AI, this device will curate content suggestions for you across all your subscriptions.
The best part of this is you can find all the recommendations done by AI organized for you in the same place. So you don’t need to open 10 streaming apps and waste your time surfing to decide what to stream next.
One more interesting feature is that you can build watchlists with recommendations for every member of your home. This means the next time you step out home, your mom doesn’t need to call you to find good movies for streaming.
2) Get AI Summaries, Reviews and Breakdowns
Sometimes, you can’t decide whether you want to watch a movie or show by just looking at the poster or the trailer. The new Google TV Streamer will provide summaries and reviews of movies and season-by-season breakdowns of shows that you are about to watch so that you get an idea of what they contain.
Of course, all of this is being done with the help of Gemini AI. This helps you save a lot of time. Especially when you don’t know what to watch between 2 movies or if you want to know if a particular show can be watched with family or not.
Some people have the habit of reading various reviews on the internet before watching a movie or show because they feel the limited time they have to relax shouldn’t be wasted on something they may end up regretting later, this device will be a boon to them.
3) Ambient Mode with AI
According to Google, with ambient mode, you can turn your idle TV into a work of art. All you need to do is, just press the voice button on the Google remote and start speaking your vision out. If you want a serene calm beachside image as your screensaver – just ask your remote and Voila, a new picture is generated using AI and displayed on your TV.
You can pull up all of your birthday pictures from Google Photos and showcase them on TV by asking the AI to create a carousel. All this can be done in just a few minutes.
Other than that, to help you manage your house without actually getting up from your seat, we have Google TV Streamer paired up with all of your Google Home devices. The Google Home panel will be available on your screen to control things like your kitchen lights or your speakers and even your thermostat.
