Google Home’s latest update makes Gemini better at understanding your commands
Summary
Google has released an update to its Home app that improves Gemini (Google's AI assistant) at understanding natural language commands for controlling smart home devices. The update allows users to describe desired settings in more natural ways, such as requesting "the color of the ocean" for lighting or specifying exact temperatures and humidity levels, and improves Gemini's ability to identify which devices are being controlled.
