Yesterday, Xiaomi unveiled MIUI 14 at the Xiaomi 13 series launch event in China. The latest version of the company’s mobile software arrives with a number of features. One of these is Xiao AI 6.0.

For the unaware, Xiao AI is Xiaomi’s virtual assistant. With the latest MIUI upgrade, the firm’s virtual assistant brings some useful features and improvements. Let’s take a look at them.

Since Google does not have a presence in China, smartphone brands in the country rely on their self-developed AI assistants.

Xiaomi introduced Xiao AI in 2018. Since then, the company has regularly updated it with features inspired by globally popular virtual assistants like Google Assistant, Apple Siri, and Amazon Alexa.

The newly introduced MIUI 14 brings Xiao AI 6.0. The latest version of the AI software now works locally on smartphones and tablets.

Xiao AI 6.0 offers the following six core functions.

• Xiao AI Suggestions
• Xiao AI Voice
• Xiao AI Vision
• Xiao AI Translator
• Xiao AI Call

Xiao AI Suggestions are similar to Siri Suggestions and Google Assistant Suggestions. The function suggests users throughout the day based on their usage scenarios.

Xiao AI can suggest a number of things, including reminders, home automation controls, travel-related actions, menstrual cycle status, and more.

As the name indicates, Xiao AI Voice is the standard voice control function. Whereas, Xiao AI Vision and Xiao AI Translator are substitutes for Google Lens and Google Translate, respectively.

Finally, Xiao AI Call is Xiaomi’s take on Google’s Pixel Call Assistant. It was first introduced in 2019, a year after Google debuted the original in 2018.

Xiao AI Call supports call screening, real-time translation, multiple Chinese dialects, and more.

Unfortunately, Xiao AI 6.0 will not be available in global markets with MIUI 14 update. Outside mainland China, smartphones and tablets sold by Xiaomi use Google Assistant. Some devices even come with Amazon Alexa.

Anyway, it is worth noting that almost all the features of Xiao AI can be experienced outside China via Google services. The only thing that’s missing is Xiao AI Call, a feature set that is only available on Google Pixel phones.
