Summary
- Gemini Live experiences issues on certain Google Home devices by repeating its responses and getting caught in a loop.
- Users have noted crashes and the creation of duplicate timers after the system recognizes its own voice.
- Google is aware of the issue and is implementing fixes, though no timeline for completion has been given.
Earlier this year, reports from Android Auto users indicated that Gemini Live was hearing its own voice and engaging in self-dialogue. Initially, it seemed that in-car systems might be responsible for this glitch. However, similar problems have now been reported on several Google Home devices. The silver lining is that Google has acknowledged the malfunction and confirmed that enhancements are being introduced.
The issue came to light on social media after a user indicated that Gemini Live was no longer functional on their Google Home. On Friday, a representative from the Google Nest Community confirmed that Live Mode was malfunctioning on certain devices and that improvements were underway.
