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.
