New Delhi: Google has launched the mobile app for its generative AI chatbot, Gemini, in India following its debut in the US four months ago. The Gemini app will now be available in nine Indian languages alongside English. The nine Indian languages: Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and Urdu.
Notably, Google will also integrate nine local languages into Gemini Advanced, the paid version of the AI assistant Gemini. The advanced app is equipped with new data analysis capabilities, file uploads and the ability to chat with Gemini in Google Messages in English.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced the launch on X and said “The app allows you to type, talk, or even add an image to get the assistance you need. Take a picture of a flat tire for instructions on how to change it, or get help writing that perfect thank you note–the possibilities are endless.”
Exciting news! Today, we’re launching the Gemini mobile app in India, available in English and 9 Indian languages. We’re also adding these local languages to Gemini Advanced, plus other new features, and launching Gemini in Google Messages in English. https://t.co/mkdSPZN5lE — Sundar Pichai (@sundarpichai) June 18, 2024
