As Samsung unveiled its new Galaxy S24 line today, Google announced a series of new AI features that are launching for Android Auto, which is the secondary interface that brings the look and functions of a smartphone, like navigation and messaging, to your vehicle’s infotainment screen.
Google says that with the help of AI, Android Auto will automatically summarize long texts of busy groups chats while you’re driving. Android Auto will also suggest relevant replies and actions. For instance, if your friend texts you asking what time you are arriving to a hangout, Android Auto will suggest that you share your ETA with them.
Google notes that if you want to navigate to a restaurant that your friend shared with you, you will be able to tap once to start navigating there, send your friend your estimated time of arrival or even call your friend.
Android Auto will also soon be able to reflect your Samsung Galaxy’s wallpaper and icons, which will essentially allow Android Auto to mirror your smartphone’s screen to the infotainment screen.
Samsung today unveiled the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 Ultra. The new smartphones are launching with camera improvements and generative AI features, along with brighter screens and new photo editing tools. The devices start at $800, $1,000 and $1,300, respectively. Pre-orders for all three devices open today.
