A smaller version of Gemini will also come to flagship Android smartphones, including Pixels and Galaxy devices, at some point in the future.

However, a new report has revealed that Google plans to get the edge over other Android phones, including Samsung, by using its new AI assistant called Pixie.

According to The Information, Google intends to bring the exclusive Pixie to its smartphones, beginning with the Pixel 9 and the Pixel 9 Pro.

By gathering data from Gmail, YouTube and other Google products on a user’s Pixel phone its aim is to offer more personalised suggestions.

The tech is said to be able to perform complex and multimodal tasks, such as suggesting directions to a store nearest the user where they can shop for a particular product they have photographed.

Samsung hasn’t given up the battle for Android dominance and is bringing several AI-powered features to its upcoming smartphones, beginning with the Galaxy S24.

Pixie is different from Google Assistant with Bard, which Google showcased just a few weeks ago.

Google Assistant with Bard will also be powered by Gemini Nano in the future, and it will also be launched on non-Google smartphones, too, such as rival Samsung.

Google Assistant with Bard could also be made available for iPhones as a standalone app.

Pixie could be exclusive to Pixel smartphones, at least at the start.

According to the report though, Google is keen to bring those new AI features to more products, including cheaper smartphones and smartwatches.

It also appears that Google has been discussing AR glasses internally.

Those glasses could feature cameras as well as an onboard AI assistant.

They may be able to see what the wearer is seeing, recognise objects, help them with using certain tools, solve a maths problem or even help in playing a musical instrument.

Pixie is expected to be, at least initially, exclusive to Google's Pixel phones
