What did Google CEO Sundar Pichai say?
Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced the Gemini mobile app’s launch on X, where he said in a post, “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.”
