Google has announced Gemini for Google TV. You can interact with the AI to find what to watch.
Google isn't the first to bring its AI to TVs, Microsoft Copilot for Samsung TVs and monitors was announced a few weeks ago. Google Assistant has allowed you to operate your TV using voice mode, and its features are still there in their relatively simple form.
But Google is cranking things up a notch with AI-powered features, To interact with Gemini on Google TV, say "Hey Google", or press the mic button on your TV's remote. Speak your query out aloud using natural language, and Gemini will respond with relevant suggestions. You can use it to find new shows to watch, catch up on a previous episode or the season.
For example, you could ask it something like, "Find me something to watch with my wife. I like dramas, but she likes lighthearted comedies." And Gemini will display the results on your screen, and also speak to you, telling you more about the suggested content. You can choose to watch the content, or engage in follow-up questions about the topic.
There's more, Google says Gemini on TV can provide a learning experience for children, or help you learn new skills, or provide recipes to cook.
Here's a video that demonstrates how Gemini for Google TV works.
A support page on Google's website says that Gemini for TV is only available in English for users in the U.S. and Canada. French is also supported in Canada.
Gemini for Google TV is available on the TCL QM9K series. Google's announcement says the feature will be available to more TVs this year, including the Google TV Streamer, Walmart onn. 4K Pro, 2025 Hisense U7, U8, and UX models, and 2025 TCL QM7K, QM8K, and X11K models. It is also planning to bring more AI features to Google TV.
