Gemini is now out

pikapika322@lemmy.world to Android@lemmy.world – 80 points – Google’s AI now goes by a new name: Gemini

Personally, I don't like it as an Assistant replacement: it can't do routines among other issues.

It seems like in its current state it can't:

  1. Access personal productivity things - calendar, reminders etc.
  2. Can't run routines
  3. Can't detect an end of your voice command

Unless I missed some obvious checkbox somewhere, this seems like a half baked replacement to me.

Google Assistant has been neutered and Gemini is not very useful.

Google just really doesn't know how to do proper feature/product releases.

At least they've stopped forcing IM'ing into everything... Haven't they?

It also doesn't reactivate the microphone when it needs a follow up answer.

It asked me "which would you prefer?" then just sat there.

I was afraid this was gonna happen. This sucks.
