Google Assistant got replaced by Gemini on my phone. What used to work before, me saying "Hey Google, set an alarm for 5 pm" doesn't work anymore.

"I am only a language model so I can't help you with that" is the default response.

Does big tech not like the idea of things working fine and smooth?

We're still safe...

Microsoft introduces co-pilot to Bing search. Google introduces Gemini to search. Still wondering were we are headed:

Now I know why no one uses the google cloud. Making TTS and STT working costed me the whole night. Gemini was easy tho. But fuck google, you costed me a lot of energy. You guys are crazy. Now my api connects in a magic way i don't even understand with the gcloud cli app. The rest of my application is totally rest, don't use much of the google library.

I implemented google TTS and STT into ChatGPT. I use for somethings google because it's cheaper. It works using a JBL Go! speaker. I can just turn it on and start chatting with it. I implemented google search and gave it a memory. It can remember numbers for me. It accepts dutch and english. I can say 'google' and google is the main action. It will fetch results from google and uses gpt to summary the results. It works perfect! BUT FUCKING AI. I want to know the color of the hair from Mona Lisa. Not freaking Ona Isa! I send it literally correct. The speechtotext works great. But fucking API with it's reading. Pathethic. How far is AI? Barely usable as home assistant. So far - besides auto completion and giving code snippets / concepts AI is freaking useless. You need more patience for AI than a kid.

I hope the inventor of oauth2 dies alone. He should.

Google Gemini API for Rest is horrible. I dont know if anyone else feels this way. If you want to know how API References and related documentation SHOULD NEVER BE written that way, go check that out.

No wonder Google's GeminiAI adoption is so much lower.

Somehow Google Gemini is better at aspects of context based Classification than chatgpt in some instances

Anyone determine which is best for such things?

Tone
Meaning
Nuanced meaning
And determining who is talking about what in the presence of pronouns etc

Can't we just leapfrog to the present state of the art goddamn

More tech more fun
Less murder
