POLL: Which Can We Find For You? |
This Week In AI
The AI landscape is evolving rapidly, as always, and this weekend’s agenda was anything but slowing down. Perplexity AI introduces new functionalities to integrate their AI as a personal assistant in a phone. Apple's Siri faces delays in its AI integration, impacting its competitiveness (which nobody ever likes). Meanwhile, Google's Gemini Live is set to roll out real-time video and screen-sharing features, pushing the boundaries of AI-assisted interactions.
Let’s dive in.

Deutsche Telekom's AI Phone
(see the details)
TL;DR:
Deutsche Telekom is set to launch an AI Phone featuring the Perplexity Assistant, alongside integrations with Google Cloud AI, ElevenLabs, and Picsart. The device is designed for voice-first interactions, allowing users to perform tasks such as booking flights, making restaurant reservations, and more without switching between apps. The AI Phone is expected to be available in the second half of the year, with some AI features accessible via the MeinMagenta app on other smartphones.
Our Take:
This development shows a shift toward AI-centric smartphones, emphasizing seamless, voice-driven user experiences. By integrating Perplexity Assistant and other AI tools, Deutsche Telekom aims to simplify daily tasks and enhance productivity. However, the success of this initiative will depend on user adoption and the practical effectiveness of the AI integrations in real-world scenarios.
Siri Faces AI Integration Delays
(see the details)
TL;DR:
Apple's Siri is experiencing significant delays in its AI integration efforts. The anticipated overhaul to transform Siri into a more advanced conversational assistant has been postponed, with reports indicating that a fully modernized version may not be available until 2027. This delay is attributed to developmental challenges and internal restructuring within Apple's AI division.
Our Take:
The halt of Siri's AI enhancements shows how complex integrating advanced AI into existing frameworks can be, even for a company as big as Apple. As competitors like Amazon and Google continue to innovate their voice assistants, Apple's delays could impact its position in the AI assistant market. Timely and effective AI integration is crucial for maintaining competitiveness in this rapidly evolving landscape.
Google's Gemini Live Introduces Video and Screen Sharing
(see the details)
TL;DR:
Google's Gemini Live is set to roll out new features, including real-time video and screen-sharing capabilities, later this month. These enhancements aim to provide users with more interactive and collaborative AI-assisted experiences, allowing for visual consultations and more dynamic interactions with the AI assistant.
Our Take:
Google's introduction of live video and screen-sharing to Gemini Live represents a significant advancement in AI-assisted user interaction. These features enable more personalized and effective assistance, setting a new standard for AI capabilities in real-time collaboration and support.
