Gemini on your Google Home talking to itself? A fix is on the way
Gemini can mistake its own voice for yours, triggering loops and duplicate commands.
Google's Gemini Live feature on some Google Home devices has been causing issues where the AI appears to hear its own voice and disrupts itself in a loop. Users have reported the AI becoming stuck in a repetitive cycle, leading to crashes, duplicate responses, and even creating additional timers. Earlier this year, similar behavior was observed in Android Auto setups, leading to speculation about car audio systems as a potential cause.
However, the issue has now been reported across various Google Home devices. Google has acknowledged the bug and stated that improvements are being rolled out to address the problem, though no completion timeline has been provided. The issue came to light after a Reddit user reported that Gemini Live had become unusable, prompting Google to address the problem.
