Google Gemini Livi is now available in Dutch.
Google has announced that its AI chatbot Gemini Live is now available in Dutch. Users can also choose a voice with a Flemish accent. The update enables natural conversations in Dutch, with expanded functionality through Google services.
AI assistant with extensive integrations
Gemini Live is positioned as a personal assistant that can do more than just answer questions. The chatbot is integrated with several Google apps, such as Gmail, Maps, and YouTube. These integrations would assist users in everyday tasks, such as scheduling appointments or learning a language, according to Google. Support for Tasks, Keep, and Utilities were also recently added.
One notable feature of Gemini Live in Dutch is the ability to have natural conversations, as the chatbot would carry on conversations as if it were a human, according to Google. Users can also choose from 10 voice options, including Flemish and Dutch accents. Finally, Google suggested extensive productivity tools: Gemini works with Google services to make tasks easier. Support for Google Calendar in Dutch is expected later.
In addition to practical support, Gemini Live is designed to provide creative thinking. For example, the chatbot would help with brainstorming or looking up information.
With this update, Google is targeting a broader Dutch-speaking audience, including Flanders. The update emphasizes the role of AI in everyday life and its broader accessibility. Further extensions to its capabilities, such as integration with more Google services, are planned.
