Google’s Gemini Intelligence leak has me excited, but please not that name

Gemini Intelligence sounds like Apple Intelligence’s Android cousin

While Google is helping Apple upgrade its AI, the search giant may have taken a little too much liking to the Apple Intelligence name. A new leak shared by Mysticleaks on Telegram seems to show “Gemini Intelligence” inside Google’s software running on what looks like a Pixel smartphone.

For now, it is best to take the leak with a grain of salt until there is something more concrete. But if the video is accurate, Google could be preparing the feature for the Pixel 11 series, which is expected to launch around August 2026.

Google can’t be serious right now…

Gemini Intelligence? 😭

Is Google really calling it Gemini Intelligence?

The irony is almost too rich. Apple Intelligence is Apple’s big bet on making Siri smarter, more personal, and actually useful in the AI age. And yet Apple has signed a multi-year partnership with Google to power next-gen Siri with Gemini models. So Google may simultaneously be fueling Apple Intelligence and launching Gemini Intelligence. That is either very efficient or very silly branding.

Google has already started expanding Gemini’s Personal Intelligence features. These allow Gemini to connect with apps like Gmail, Google Photos, YouTube, and Search to answer questions with a user’s own context. Instead of asking a generic chatbot for help, users can ask for information tied to their emails, photos, saved details, and activity across Google services.

Why would Pixel 11 make sense?

Pixel phones have long been Google’s test bed for AI features, including call screening and AI-powered photo editing tools. If “Gemini Intelligence” is real, Pixel 11 would be the natural place to introduce it as a deeply integrated, phone-level AI layer. We just hope that the name gets a second pass. Assuming, of course, that there’s a name to pass on at all.

Meta's next move with AI is moving beyond chatbots and stepping into a shopping assistant. According to an Engadget report, citing The Information, the company is developing a more advanced "agentic” AI assistant that can perform tasks on behalf of users instead of simply answering prompts. This would include a specialized AI shopping agent for Instagram.
