One of the Gemini AI-powered features Google introduced at I/O this year was a solution for never-ending scam calls. It has the capability to detect whether a call is suspicious while it's still ongoing and can alert you so that you could drop the call as soon as possible.

Google is rolling out two new AI-powered security features to Pixel 6 or newer devices. One observes call patterns to notify users about potential scammers on the default Phone app, and the other scans apps for malware and notifies users about live threats via Google Play Protect.

Google has announced two new AI-powered security features for Pixel phones. The first is Scam Detection, which protects you in real-time during phone calls. The second is live threat detection in Google Play Protect, which guards users from malware and unsafe apps in real-time.

Google is rolling out a new Scam Detection feature to its Pixel devices that uses on-device AI models to identify potential scam calls.

Google has started rolling out Live Scam Detection to the Pixel Phone app, while an upgraded version of the Play Protect system will help detect and report any scammy Google Play apps in real time. However only the latter will be making its way to non Pixel phones, as far as we know.

Play Protect on Pixel phones monitors apps for harmful behavior, alerting users in real-time with notifications. Google already provides several tools to protect your Pixel smartphone from spam calls and messages.
