Google is integrating artificial intelligence, Gemini, to Maps in India to make the app more effective. The AI integration was launched in the US, to add more value to the app, by giving more safety alerts and extra information about the routes. It will give hands-free assistance and also provide contextual suggestions while navigating places of interest.

Speaking about the efforts of the team involved in the integration, Miriam Daniel, vice president and head of Google Maps, said the employees had to work on localisation.

Localisation in India includes how the people inquire about routes, how they identify the places, the geopolitical places, the names of streets, apart from the various languages. Gemini in Google Mapswill be available to Android and iOS users in the next few weeks.
