As reported by 9to5Google, AI Core has been present on Pixel phones and tablets since the initial Android 14 update, but this is the first official update for the app. The update bumps the app version from 0.release.539035001 to 0.release.582652206 and is currently specific to Pixel 8 Pro devices on the stable and beta (QPR1 and QPR2) Android 14 builds. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this update is yet available for the Pixel 8 or older Pixel devices.
While you won’t interact with AI Core directly, it plays an important role in delivering AI-powered experiences on your Pixel 8 Pro. Running mostly as a background service, some of the features that AI Core helps power include automatic scene detection for your camera, enhanced Google Assistant responses, and more personalized recommendations. Many of these listed as the exclusive smart features of the Pixel 8 Pro that sets this smartphone aside from others.
