Google May Expand Gemini's 'Call for Me' Feature to Personal Phone Calls

App code teardowns suggest Google is testing an expansion of its Gemini-powered "Call for Me" feature to let the AI assistant place personal calls to friends and family. This update would allow Gemini to handle simple tasks such as delivering messages or making basic inquiries on behalf of the user. This development signals a shift for autonomous AI agents from commercial tasks—such as making restaurant reservations or checking store hours—to everyday personal communications. As AI assistants take on social interactions, it could change how people communicate while raising new questions about digital etiquette and automated call acceptance. Early UI leaks show example call targets such as "Mom" and "John," along with controls allowing call recipients to decline calls made by an AI assistant. The code teardown also revealed early-stage work on more granular app permissions for reading, writing, and deleting data.
