Google now provides early access for AI agents to control Google Home devices and smart home activity.

Google is initiating an early access program for a new server, specifically developed for its Google Home platform. This server, identified as MCP, will facilitate new levels of interaction for artificial intelligence agents. It allows prominent AI models, including Claude and ChatGPT, to engage with various aspects of a user's smart home ecosystem.

Through this early access, these AI agents will gain the ability to directly control devices connected within the Google Home system. Furthermore, they will be able to review comprehensive summaries generated from camera feeds and access detailed information regarding overall smart home activity. Users can leverage these advanced functionalities by simply employing natural language.
