"Google's Fi cellular service is getting an upgrade, and since this is 2025, there's plenty of AI involved. You'll be able to ask Google AI questions about your bill, and a different variation of AI will improve call quality. AI haters need not despair-there are also some upgrades to connectivity and Fi web features. As part of this update, a new Gemini-powered chatbot will soon be turned loose on your billing statements."
"The idea is that you can get bill summaries and ask specific questions of the robot without waiting for a real person. Google claims that testers have had positive experiences with the AI billing bot, so it's rolling the feature out widely. Next month, Google also plans to flip the switch on an AI audio enhancement. The new "optimized audio" will use AI to filter out background sounds like wind or crowd noise."
Google Fi will add a Gemini-powered chatbot capable of summarizing bills and answering specific billing questions to reduce reliance on human support. Testers reportedly had positive experiences, and Google plans a broad rollout. An "optimized audio" AI feature will filter background sounds like wind and crowd noise and will reduce noise on the remote caller's end; Pixel users already have a similar local feature. Fi has added HD and HD+ calling support on supported connections. Web-based calling and texting will gain RCS compatibility so users can use browser features with RCS enabled.
