AI-driven televisions have officially made their debut, regardless of your readiness for them.
At **CES 2025**, Google unveiled its newest television operating system, loaded with AI-infused features. However, Google is not the only player in this arena — as highlighted by **Cecily Mauran of Mashable**, AI-enhanced TVs are among the prominent trends at this year’s CES.
Here’s a summary of three significant features that Google’s Gemini-augmented TVs are anticipated to provide upon their release later this year.

### 1. Converse with Your TV
Having difficulty locating that hard-to-find movie or show? Google asserts that its Gemini AI can simplify the experience.
In a [blog post](https://blog.google/feed/google-tv-ces-2025/), Google noted:
> “You and your family can come together for a natural discussion with your TV. This will streamline the media search experience, allowing you to pose inquiries about travel, health, space, history, and more, with relevant videos in the results for additional context.”
In essence, Gemini will enable you to engage with your TV in a conversational manner, allowing for content searches, general queries, and other tasks to be performed effortlessly.

### 2. Receive News Summaries
As detailed by [TechCrunch](https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/06/google-unveils-an-ai-powered-tv-that-summarizes-the-news-for-you-at-ces-2025/), Gemini TVs will also have the capability to compile and read daily news summaries. The AI assistant will gather stories from across the web and reputable YouTube news channels to create a customized update.
Although this feature appears handy, it does raise issues regarding accuracy. AI systems, including those from Google, have been criticized in the past for challenges related to factual reliability.

### 3. Recognize Your Presence
The upcoming TVs will be integrated with sensors that can sense when someone is nearby. As per [The Verge](https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/6/24337314/google-tv-gemini-integration-ai-ces-2025), this function will enable the TV to showcase personalized widgets, such as weather information or news summaries, whenever you’re present in the room.
This could eliminate the need to ask Alexa about the temperature.
