Oh, you thought AI was just in your browser and on your phone? Well, the AI is coming from inside the house. The Verge’s Jen Pattison Tuohy and Google’s Anish Kattukaran both join the show to discuss last week’s Google smart home news, including the company’s big bet on the Gemini assistant. Anish explains why Google cares about the smart home in the first place, why things haven’t exactly gone great so far, and why he’s so convinced the new generation of AI can make it work. After that, The Verge’s Vee Song joins the show to talk about Peloton’s newest gear, including a $6,695 treadmill and a huge new push into personalized AI training features. Vee then sticks around to help David answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about how many smartwatches is too many smartwatches. Spoiler alert: the answer is two. But it’s not quite as simple as that. 0:00 Introduction and David's Treadmill Troubles 00:52 Today's Agenda: Smart Home and Peloton 02:02 Google's Smart Home Strategy 03:28 Challenges and Future of Google Home 06:48 Interview with Google Home's CPO, Anish Kattukaran 11:23 Google's Short Attention Span 17:13 Where Does Google Decide what They Do and Don't Do? 20:11 The Frustration of Google and Nest Users in the Past 23:13 Google Home's New Gemini-Powered Product Lineup 26:20 The Comfort of an In-home Camera 31:15 Google's Advantage in Smart Home Tech 37:04 Peloton's New Product Lineup 43:32 Peloton's New Hardware Updates 43:47 Sonos Collaboration and Interface Changes 44:29 Peloton's Target Audience and Trade-In Program 45:40 AI Integration in Fitness 46:42 Strength Training and AI Insights 47:36 Peloton's Market Strategy and Pricing 54:29 Peloton's Diehard Community 58:33 Peloton's Pricing Evolution 01:02:55 Peloton's Future and AI Challenges 01:09:36 Vergecast Hotline: Should I wear two smart watches? 01:20:16 Conclusion Subscribe: http://goo.gl/G5RXGs Like The Verge on Facebook: https://goo.gl/2P1aGc Follow on Twitter: https://goo.gl/XTWX61 Follow on Instagram: https://goo.gl/7ZeLvX Follow on TikTok: http://bit.ly/42VeCVU Watch The Vergecast on YouTube: https://bit.ly/40RFRkg The Vergecast Podcast: https://bit.ly/3WQDexZ Decoder with Nilay Patel: http://apple.co/3v29nDc More about our podcasts: https://www.theverge.com/podcasts Read More: http://www.theverge.com Community guidelines: http://bit.ly/2D0hlAv Wallpapers from The Verge: https://bit.ly/2xQXYJr Shop our Verge merch store here: https://bit.ly/4kPCmEc Subscribe to The Verge: https://bit.ly/3FT6n5S Subscribe to The Vergecast on YouTube, new episodes on Tuesday and Friday: https://bit.ly/3I6nJtz If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may receive a commission without exerting any influence on editorial content.
