Google Home's AI 'Live Search'

Google Home's new "Live Search" uses AI to answer real-time questions about your home via Nest Cam [Google Home 'Live Search' uses AI to watch your home and answer questions in [real-time Gallery]](https://9to5google.com/2026/03/09/google-home-nest-cam-live-search/).

The "Live Search" feature lets you ask Google Home questions about what your Nest Cam sees, like "Is my door open?". Google's AI then analyzes the video feed to provide an answer. This builds on existing Nest Cam features, such as person, package, and animal detection. Now, it can identify more specific objects and situations. 9to5Google's gallery shows examples of the feature recognizing a dog, a guitar, and an open door. This suggests a growing sophistication in Google's object recognition capabilities.
