"Gemini is now being added to Google TV. It will be available starting on TCL's new QM9K series TVs - which were announced earlier this month but are launching today - and come to other TVs and streaming boxes running Google TV later this year. It will carry forward the same basic commands that Google Assistant has offered for years, such as playing a specific show when asked."
"But Gemini on Google TV isn't limited to being a tool for finding something to watch. After activating it by saying "Hey Google" or pressing the mic button on your TV remote, you can ask broader questions like "why do volcanoes erupt" or "what's a dessert I can make in less than an hour?" Gemini will provide text responses that are read aloud, along with suggestions for related YouTube videos."
Gemini is being integrated into Google TV, initially arriving on TCL's QM9K series and rolling out to other Google TV devices and streaming boxes later in the year. The assistant retains traditional Google Assistant commands like playing a specific show, while adding conversational capabilities that let users find shows from vague descriptions or request recaps. Users can activate Gemini via voice or the remote mic and ask broader informational or practical questions; responses are provided as read-aloud text with suggested related YouTube videos. Availability will expand to select streamers and 2025 TV models from multiple manufacturers.
