"Google is releasing an update for Pixel phones with an interesting feature in the mix: notification summaries. Apple notably had plenty of trouble implementing its version of this AI-powered feature, and Google is taking a cautious first step by deploying it only for chat conversations. It'll arrive as part of this month's Pixel update for Pixel 9 series phones and newer - with the exception of the Pixel 9A."
"Google expanded its scam detection feature in messages beyond Pixel phones earlier this year. Now, Pixel 6 phones and newer will expand scam detection beyond Google's Messages to some third-party chat apps including Telegram and Discord. The notification itself includes a badge labeling it as "likely scam," and tapping the notification triggers a system pop-up encouraging the user to exercise caution. Google is expanding access to scam detection for calls, too, bringing it to Pixel 9 owners (9A excluded) in the UK, Ireland, India, Australia, and Canada."
Notification summaries will arrive on Pixel phones, limited to chat conversations and only for longer threads, rolling out to Pixel 9 series and newer except the Pixel 9A. December's update will add automatic sorting of notifications and silence lower-priority alerts. Scam detection in Messages expands to Pixel 6 and newer for third-party chat apps including Telegram and Discord, marking suspected messages with a "likely scam" badge and showing a cautionary system pop-up. Scam detection for calls will reach Pixel 9 owners (9A excluded) in select countries. AI-powered photo "remix" editing will be available inside Messages for supported regions and English language.
