Google is set to introduce AI-powered smart replies to the Call Screening feature, according to a recent teardown of the Phone app.
Google is reportedly developing AI-powered replies for its Phone app’s call-screening feature, according to a tweet from AssembleDebug. The new feature will improve Call Screening by suggesting smart replies based on the caller’s responses. The AI assistance, branded as « Call Assist », could potentially help users respond more efficiently during screened calls.
The development, discovered through a teardown of the latest Google Phone app beta release (v153) by 9to5Google, offers more glimpses into how the new functionality may operate. The teardown revealed code references to « dobby_LLM », hinting that Google plans to use its Gemini Nano language model to power the AI responses.
