Google is testing a new Gemini capability that can place phone calls to businesses on a user’s behalf. According to the company, the AI-calling feature will initially be available to Pixel 11 owners in the United States who hold a paid Gemini subscription.

Why it matters

The feature points to Google using Gemini to handle tasks that require interacting with businesses directly, extending the assistant beyond text responses toward actions taken for the user.

Who should care

Pixel 11 owners in the U.S. with a Gemini subscription are the first eligible users. Others interested in AI assistants that perform tasks may watch how the test develops.
