"Google Gemini Enhances Calendar Integration, Posing a Challenge to Google Assistant"

Google's new AI generative models, Gemini, will soon be able to access events scheduled in Google Calendar on Android phones, making it a step closer to being an all-in-one digital assistant. Users can now prompt Gemini to show their calendar events and add new events using voice or text commands. Google is making progress to position Gemini as its proprietary AI offering, but it still needs to add more features and expand availability beyond the United States to compete with other AI assistants like Microsoft's Copilot and Amazon's Alexa.
