Google reportedly is testing Remy, a Gemini-powered AI assistant designed to act as a proactive digital operator inside the Gemini app, capable of managing work, school and personal tasks, learning user habits, and planning actions beyond simple questions. The move signals a shift toward agentic AI—integrating planning and task execution across Google services like Workspace, Android and Search—though no launch date is set and privacy concerns persist.
