Work colleagues have recommended The Crown on Netflix, the Golden Globe-winning drama starring Claire Foy. You decide to watch it after a hard day at work. You reach for the remote, turn on the TV and begin scrolling through the menus. It feels like too much effort.
If only you could simply say ‘Play The Crown on Netflix’ and your TV did it all for you.
Today, you can. Introducing LG TVs with artificial intelligence-powered voice controls. The future of TV is now.
TVs that use artificial intelligence, or AI, recognise and act upon what you’re saying. Working in the same way as the smart speaker you may have at home, AI TVs use natural language processing to recognise spoken words. LG TVs use ThinQ AI and Google Assistant technology.
ThinQ AI is LG’s artificial intelligence platform. It’s at the heart of LG smart appliances, smartphones, smart speakers and smart TVs. An open platform, it can be used with different virtual assistants – including Google Assistant – to control LG devices and access information through your voice.
Using your voice, you can search for a TV show or movie, adjust the volume or change your picture settings. The more you use it, the more attuned to your needs it becomes – creating an entertainment experience tailored to your preferences.
The power of Google built into your TV means you can also find answers to questions you’d usually Google on your phone or tablet. You may find asking your TV questions a little strange, but we’ve been doing this for generations. Teletext and Ceefax provided everything from news headlines and travel deals to the latest football scores straight from your television during the 1980s and 1990s.

As we’ve explained, AI technology recognises your voice. To make it happen you need to speak into your TV remote; the LG Magic Remote. Simply press the ‘microphone button’ to get started. Google only listens to what you’re saying when the microphone button on the remote is held down.
Thermostats and light bulbs are among a new generation of smart home products than can be controlled over your home Wi-Fi. You can also control compatible products from your TV – for example, turning up the heating or dimming the lights. Simply say ‘dim the living room lights’ to set the mood for movie night.
All 2018 OLED and Super UHD TVs are powered by ThinQ AI and Google Assistant.
You can see LG AI TV in real life with a demo at your nearest Currys. In-store experts will happily talk you through the technology in general, and also any specific areas you want to explore.
