Gemini can now call businesses for you so you don’t have to wait on hold

Google is testing a new feature on Pixel 11 phones where Gemini (Google's AI assistant) can make phone calls to local businesses on your behalf, handling tasks like making reservations or checking product availability. You can tell Gemini to call through the app without dialing yourself, and you stay in control by watching a live transcript and being able to intervene during the conversation.
