Google's Gemini AI May Automate Personal Phone Calls
A rumored Android update suggests that Google may expand its Gemini AI feature, known as 'Call for Me,' to automate personal phone calls. According to a report by Android Authority, an APK teardown revealed examples of the feature being used in scenarios like informing family members about delays or confirming dinner plans with friends. The expansion appears limited to basic message delivery rather than full conversation automation. Users may also gain granular control over Gemini's permissions within individual apps, including options for phone call access and potentially opting out of receiving automated calls from the AI system. However, it remains uncertain whether Google will publicly release this feature or these settings. This development highlights ongoing efforts to integrate artificial intelligence into everyday communication tools while raising questions about user privacy and control over such technologies.
