Waymo brings Gemini to Ojai vehicles
Waymo has integrated Google's Gemini AI assistant into its custom Ojai vehicles to provide personalized ride experiences. The system allows riders to use voice commands for cabin control and local information.
Why it matters
Passengers can now manage their vehicle environment and find local points of interest hands-free during trips. This separates the passenger's interactive needs from the autonomous driving operations.
The details
- Gemini operates independently of the Waymo Driver system.
- Users can control cabin settings like A/C via voice commands.
- The assistant remains inactive until a rider chooses to engage with it.
