Google's AI can now make phone calls for you
Briefly

A new AI feature in Google Search enables users in the US to check pricing and availability of local businesses without making phone calls. This feature is currently available for specific service types, such as pet groomers and dry cleaners. When a user searches, they see a prompt to have AI check pricing. The AI gathers details from the user and communicates with the business on their behalf, then provides updates via text. Business owners can opt out, and higher-tier subscribers get more usage benefits.
Google has introduced a new feature in Search allowing AI to check pricing at local businesses, aimed at saving time for users.
The AI feature is designed especially for younger users who struggle with phone calls, making it easier to gather information from local services.
