Google Expands AI Gemini To Google TV, Redefining In-Home Engagement

Google is poised to transform the home entertainment experience with the rollout of its AI-powered assistant, Gemini, to Google TV. Announced on Monday, this strategic initiative leverages natural language processing to facilitate seamless, conversation-based interactions, thereby setting a new standard in digital engagement.

With Gemini’s integration, the tech giant will extend its cutting-edge AI technology to over 300 million active Google TV devices and other Android TV OS-powered platforms. This expansion underscores Google’s commitment to blending sophisticated artificial intelligence with consumer electronics, enhancing both functionality and user interaction.

Enhanced Viewing Decisions

One of the primary applications of Gemini is to simplify choices in content consumption. Whether settling on a TV show that caters to diverse preferences or providing episode recaps for catching up, Gemini offers a sophisticated solution to everyday viewing dilemmas. Users can even receive recommendations or reviews for movies and shows, ensuring informed decisions and a more personalized entertainment experience.

Versatile Applications Beyond Entertainment

Gemini’s utility extends well beyond media queries. Families can tap into its capability for homework assistance and project brainstorming, while individuals might explore new skills or even plan vacations. This multipurpose functionality mirrors that of the AI chatbot available on smartphones, reinforcing Gemini’s role as an indispensable tool in various facets of daily life. Importantly, the existing non-AI Google Assistant commands remain active, ensuring that traditional functionalities are retained alongside the new capabilities.

Strategic Rollout And Future Expansion

The introduction of Gemini begins with the TCL QM9K series, marking the first phase of a carefully planned rollout. Subsequent deployments include the Google TV Streamer, Walmart onn 4K Pro, select Hisense models, and additional TCL offerings scheduled for later this year. Each phase is designed to incrementally enhance both the capabilities and user experience of Google’s AI-enabled ecosystem.

Google’s expansion of Gemini to Google TV signals a pivotal advancement in how artificial intelligence intersects with in-home entertainment, positioning the company at the forefront of technology-enabled lifestyle innovations.

Eurobank Plans €1 Billion Investment In AI And Digital Banking By 2028

Eurobank plans to invest about €1 billion in technology from 2025 through 2028, its largest technology investment program to date. The Banking Forward strategy focuses on digital banking, artificial intelligence, customer experience and a “phygital” model combining digital services with face-to-face support.

Digital Banking Dominates Customer Activity

Digital channels already account for 96% of Eurobank transactions, with 61% completed through the Eurobank Mobile App. Among customers aged 35 and under, digital adoption reaches 94%.

Customers make about 574 million annual logins across e/m-banking and more than 1 million digital transactions each day. During the first half of 2026, one in three banking products was acquired digitally.

AI Moves Into Everyday Banking

Eurobank is expanding the use of AI through tools including EVA, its digital customer assistant, and myEVA, an AI-powered voice assistant for employees. The technology is also being applied to mortgage assessments, customer feedback analysis and contractual documents.

The bank’s technology architecture is built around five areas: digital channels, customer experience orchestration, data and AI, core banking, and infrastructure and cloud. About 50% of its applications and digital channels are already cloud-based.

Investment Extends Beyond Technology

The program is intended to reshape how Eurobank operates, combining automation and AI with employee development and human support. The bank says the approach is designed to improve services while maintaining access to face-to-face banking when customers need it.
