Google Duplex, the automated service that calls businesses to make reservations on your behalf, eventually received a public launch, VentureBeat said. In a statement, Google said it is starting to "slow deployment" Google Duplex expands to a "small group" of Pixel owners in "selected cities". Thus, in addition to expanding its availability together with users, the service can call restaurants in which Google has a partnership. The service launched in a very limited state. So, for now, the service is restricted to accessing restaurant reservations, and some are still unavailable. Pixel devices are only supported at the moment, which doesn't mean there are any smart displays or other mobile devices. Google Assistant will only make calls in English in the cities selected for the test.

not yet clear how long it will take for the service to overcome each of these limitations, however, as Google is recording all of your current Duplex calls, it is likely that it will be gathering a lot of important usage data with the launch. Through Google Duplex, users will be able to get an idea of how everything works. The option to have the Google Assistant make the call can be via the "make a reservation" prompt, or it's possible to find a specific restaurant and request a table from there. After that, a quick chat with Google takes place, in which the user provides details of the party size, date, time and alternate phone number. In this way, after the reservation is made, it will be transferred to the "My Reservations" list, along with other appointments extracted from the email or even the agenda. Google will still let you know when the service will be made available to all users.
