Another Gemini-powered extension promotes Google’s vision of providing its users with advanced AI tools for summarising content. The new notifications extension is likely to summarise notifications and place them in the order of relevance. There is an anticipation that some functions get automatically started on the basis of notification. For instance, a notification about a cricket win might make the home speaker play a victory song.

However, it must be noted that these features were just discovered in the beta phase. Therefore, it may take some time for the official rollout. It looks like Google has been on an agenda to position Gemini as a reliable chatbot which is capable of multitasking.
