Google is a company with datacenters. It never rested anyway.
Also, f- these “AI” (surveillance mics)

I think alot of folks have been going the other direction considering it doesn’t work nearly as well as the old assistant. When they pushed the new shit to the Google home devices and everything stopped working we just stopped using it and have no desire to go back.

But it is so bad. I don’t understand how with all the data they have about everyone their Gemini integrations in their products suck so much. Can’t make a proper task from the email list. Can’t find docs related to meetings. It is all literally in their systems.
Their product managers are so shortsighted. Jam half-assed stuff and pat themselves on the back.
I know people will probably disagree but I like the fact that Apple has stepped back on AI and slowed down. I suspect once they finally release something. It may actually be useful and probably opt-in/out. Whether the op-out is actually real is another debate.

What’s neat, is that I can’t holler and turn off my lights anymore, but now I also need to watch what I say about our glorious leadership.
It’s honestly been a little disruptive in the car, which is one of my favorite places to be disrupted.

Anyone who didn’t learn their lesson from the Nest debacle is a fool. I would never let another Google device into my home.

They killed off their first and second gen thermostats for no good reason.
They also sold off their smoke detector business.
Amongst all the other things they’ve killed.

Seems like every year or so Google messes with it and fucks over customers in the process.

Highly recommend people leave Google services. Use Ente to store photos. Proton for email. DuckDuckGo or Ecosia for search. Organic Maps for directions. FreeTube or yewtu.be for videos. Venice AI as your advanced chatbot. Google needs to be broken up and regulated.

Youre not wrong at all but I’ve found people won’t deal with the slightest inconvenience. Quite sad.
