Google has shown off new features coming to Google TV at CES 2025, including presence detection and Google Assistant with Gemini integration.

Imagine walking into your living room and your TV automatically telling you the weather and your calendar for the day. If this is a future you can imagine, you’ll be pleased to hear that Google is working on a new mode for Google TV that does just that.

I would gladly factory reset my television and run off osmc or something if that becomes the norm.

well only if that becomes possible at all

I was referring to running a second device. Running the TV off osmc would rock, but not happening.

Frustrating fact: I have to wait for my LG TV to boot. It shows a picture, but takes a minute to load the OS and produce sound.
