News Summary

Google has announced new updates to its Gemini AI-powered features on Android. The most significant enhancement is the ability to automate multi-step tasks such as ordering food or booking rides. Initially available in the U.S. and Korea, this feature will be in beta and limited to certain devices like the Pixel 10 and Samsung Galaxy S26 series. The automation can only be triggered by explicit commands and occurs in a secure, virtual environment on the phone. Alongside these updates, Google is expanding its scam detection feature to Samsung devices and improving its Circle to Search functionality, which now allows users to search all items visible on their phone screen.
