Google Developing New AI Assistant Pixie to Replace Google Assistant on Pixel Devices Starting in 2024
-
Google is reportedly developing a new AI assistant called "Pixie" to replace Google Assistant on Pixel devices, starting with the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro in 2024.
-
Pixie will be exclusive to Pixel products and more personalized by integrating with Gmail, Maps, etc., thanks to Google's new AI model Gemini.
-
Pixie is expected to be much more powerful than Google Assistant by running on-device via Gemini Nano, enhancing security and speed.
-
Pixie could link to new Google Glasses to analyze real-world objects and provide instructions on using tools, playing instruments, etc.

As a Pixel-exclusive feature, Pixie may become an important sales driver for the Pixel 9 generation when it likely launches in 2024.
