Google Maps to add Gemini-led conversational tools
In a shift in how users interact with its services, Google Maps is rolling out an AI-driven conversational interface powered by the tech giant’s Gemini model. The update will reach Indian users in the coming weeks, marking Google’s broader push to embed AI into everyday digital tools.
The new feature allows users to make open-ended, natural language queries while navigating — such as checking if a destination has parking, finding services along a route, or locating alternative paths if traffic worsens — without relying on rigid voice commands.
