Google gives Gemini a body with new AI robotics project

When we talk about the future of Google Gemini and other artificial intelligence chatbots, we usually aren’t talking about AI interacting with the physical world. Sure, there are plenty of things that Gemini does that we have overlooked in the past, but until today, we could semi-confidently say that the benefits of Gemini’s capabilities were felt specifically in the digital realm. Project Astra, Google’s vision for the world of AI digital assistants, is something that we first said was the Google Glass we deserved in the year 2024 (we still deserve it in 2025). Combined with Project Astra, Google is taking Gemini to realms mostly unseen today with Gemini Robotics.
