Google Home’s big Gemini upgrade always had a certain allure. We’ve seen enough sci-fi movies to know how useful an all-knowing assistant running your home could be, but Gemini for Home hasn’t reached that futuristic stage just yet. One reason is that it hasn’t always got the context right, and asking a speaker about “the nanny” or “my wife’s car” only works if the assistant knows who and what you mean. Still, Google appears to be moving in the right direction, with the latest Google Home updates aimed squarely at making those household questions less robotic.
Google detailed the changes in its May 11 release notes and a Nest Community post, with the Gemini for Home updates rolling out to voice assistant early access users. The Google Home app is also getting a few improvements of its own as part of version 4.16, which begins rolling out today.
