All LG televisions this year will receive a built-in Google Assistant
LG is already ready to introduce a new line of OLED-TVs at CES 2018. The company said that all new TVs will receive a built-in voice assistant from Google.
Until then, all the manufacturer's TVs were delivered on the webOS operating system and had their own voice assistant. But LG takes a step forward by embedding Google Assistant in products with AI under the "ThinQ" brand.
How it will work
You can use the built-in assistant to solve specific issues, but in some countries (LG does not yet say which) it will be possible to switch from the built-in assistant to Google Assistant, which can solve a more extensive list of tasks, and it is able to manage a smart house. Thanks to this LG televisions, in fact, will become intelligent home control centers. Devices, as before, will work on WebOS, but with new ThinQ features.
