Google Maps

Google Maps has integrated the Gemini AI model into the new Ask Maps feature, now available in Israel. After testing it, I believe it transforms the app from a passive navigator into a proactive, intelligent personal assistant.

Soon, users won't need to switch between multiple apps to order food or plan commutes. Google is enhancing Google Maps with new artificial intelligence capabilities that allow for a variety of tasks—from food ordering to travel planning—without leaving the app.

Google Maps is launching a major update for its AI chat, Ask Maps. It now functions as a smart personal assistant that understands your plans and provides real-time recommendations.
