Google Releases New Pixel 9 Series with AI Technology Gemini and Compares with Apple

TapTechNews August 14th news, Google today released the new generation of Pixel 9 series phones that fully carry its self-developed AI technology Gemini, and launched a series of brand-new AI functions. At the press conference, Google took the opportunity to implicitly satirize Apple's AppleIntelligence.

Like Apple's AppleIntelligence, Gemini also adopts a local processing approach. However, Google emphasizes that Gemini can independently handle complex queries without relying on third-party AI services, and this statement is obviously aiming at Apple's plan to integrate ChatGPT into Siri. Google says that Gemini is deeply integrated with Google apps and the Android system and can independently handle complex queries without relying on third-party AI providers that users may not be familiar with or trust.

In contrast, Apple plans to use ChatGPT to achieve functions such as text generation and image creation, while its existing Siri and ImagePlayground have limited capabilities. There are rumors that Apple also plans to integrate Gemini into the iPhone, allowing users to choose their favorite AI service.

TapTechNews noticed that Google's new Pixel devices have many innovative AI functions, including an image generator named PixelStudio, which uses a local diffusion model to generate stickers and images based on text prompts, similar to Apple's ImagePlayground. In addition, the AI can also edit photos, add objects that didn't exist originally, and be used to generate customized weather reports. A new feature in the camera app can merge two photos so that the photographer can also appear in the group photo, and it can also classify and remember the information in the screenshot. The feature named Call Log is similar to Apple's call recording function, which can record and summarize the content of the call.

Google also launched GeminiLive for the Pixel 9 series phones and supporting headphones, allowing users to have a free and smooth conversation with Gemini.
