Gemini for Android Auto is just giving up on answers for some drivers

Gemini for Android Auto, touted as an AI assistant with greater capabilities than its predecessor, is proving to be a letdown for some drivers. The issue of Gemini giving up on answers has become a significant problem, rendering the technology seemingly useless for many users. Launching on Android Auto has been riddled with issues, but the latest problem adds to the frustration.

Users are reporting that Gemini processes commands and then simply ceases to provide answers. A video shared on Reddit showcases this issue, with several others confirming the same problem. This issue is not related to signal strength or the nature of the question being asked; Gemini simply sits and waits for a few moments before giving up.

The problem has been noticed on devices from various manufacturers, including Pixel, Samsung, and Motorola. Despite the widespread reports, Google has yet to acknowledge the issue.
