"Pixel 9's 'Pixie' AI Assistant Sparks Excitement and Debate"
Google is reportedly developing a new AI-powered personal assistant called Pixie, which may be released for Pixel phones and other Google hardware. Running locally on the device, Pixie could offer a more personalized version of existing AI assistants, allowing users to ask questions, manage settings, and access app data without relying on cloud-based supercomputers. While details are limited, speculation suggests that Pixie could be introduced at Google I/O 2024 and become available on the Pixel 9 and older Pixel models in winter 2024.
