Google unveiled its ninth generation Pixel smartphone line at an event, focusing on the integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) features rather than hardware design elements. The new AI tools, including an image-generating app called Pixel Studio and Gemini Live, an AI chatbot powered by voice, will be widely dispersed across other Android phones. However, these features are exclusive to subscribers of Google's Gemini Advanced plan, priced at $20 per month, making it more of an upselling strategy rather than a focus on selling premium smartphones. Google's expertise in upselling once-free services, such as YouTube's non-advertising revenue, may work in its favor.
