The Verge: ‘You can now ask Google Maps ‘complex, real-world questions’ — and Gemini will answer’

Ask Maps lets you describe your plans conversationally, including as much or as little detail as you want, and Gemini will sift through your query to provide as detailed a response as you need, often using personal details you’ve provided through your past interactions with Google Maps.

I’ve been experimenting with Google Maps (its CarPlay interface is quite good), and will be interested to try this out.

But I’m more intrigued by the fully-redesigned map that’s coming too. Examples in the post.
