I recently sold my house that had some Nest cameras which I was very happy with. I'm closing on a new place and had planned to get new Nest cameras for it, but this morning I received an email from Google with the following text. I don't want AI integration for my cameras, so will be looking for a different solution.


Nest Aware is being upgraded to become Google Home Premium, evolving from a camera subscription into a service for your whole home. We’re unlocking the power of AI to make your home smarter, safer, and more effortless with Gemini for Home.1,2

With Gemini for Home, your Nest Cams and Doorbells, and compatible smart home devices get more powerful AI security features, and your Google and Nest speakers and displays get a more helpful voice assistant.1,3
