Google TV gets a new AI-powered feature update, but it's not for...
Your Google TV box or Chromecast might have received a new feature update that brings an exciting enhancement to your streaming experience. Google has introduced a new feature called "News Briefs" to provide users with a summarized overview of the top news stories of the day.
Google unveiled this feature during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and it is now being rolled out to some Google TV products. The "News Briefs" feature, powered by Gemini, pulls together major news stories from the day and provides summarized information. It also includes video sources, mainly from YouTube, to offer additional insights on the topics.
What News Briefs Offers
According to Google's support page, News Briefs presents overviews of the top news stories using Gemini models and human evaluation. It also surfaces related YouTube videos from trusted news sources to help users learn more about the topics. The briefs are updated throughout the day to keep users informed about the latest news developments.
Interestingly, the launch of Google TV's News Briefs feature coincides with Apple's decision to temporarily suspend its Notification Summary feature for news and entertainment apps. This move by Google highlights its commitment to providing accurate and informative news updates to users.
Availability of News Briefs
While the Google TV News Briefs feature may not be widely available initially, users in the US who receive the update can access it on the "For You" page of Google TV. Stay tuned for further updates on the availability of this feature in more regions.
