. The biggest of them involves how Gemini could bear the load of mundane or mindless tasks you do on your phone or other Android devices.
Like....what?
i dont want to use AI at all, anywhere, lol. google/samsung tried to force bixby down our throats and now they're doing the same with Gemini. i dont want any part of it!!!!
Gemini is fucking garbage, it's useless as an assistant and Google destroyed Assistant which could do genuinely helpful things like navigate hands free, set timers reliably and without Internet connections, set calendar reminders, etc.
Try to use voice commands to navigate now?
Gemini tells you to use the Maps app.
Fuck you Gemini, that's not helpful at all.
Get your shit together Google.
Its my computer device. Only I should have say on what shit is installed on it and runs on it.
It's cool how they've broken assistant so badly that commands like "Call Mom" and "Set a timer for 20 minutes" no longer work for me the majority of the time.
The desperate forced adoption of "AI" seems more like rape than marketing.
The majority of people's issue with AI is that it's an unhelpful level of competence. It's obviously advanced enough that it isn't just a basic automation tool while at the same time being stupid enough that you would never trust its output. This puts it in an awkward cultural point where it's use is effectively nullified by its own incapabilities.
Essentially I spend about as much time fact checking it as it would if I just done the task myself.
I swear we were told when all this started the AI was going to bring about a cultural revolution give us Star Trek replicators and warp drive.
I disabled Gemini. But unfortunately they tied a whole host of features I really liked about my phone to that fucking thing. And now they're all unusable. Google has effectively made themselves useless to me. There is now literally no point in having Android over any other OS that exists.
Use android and don't have any of this enabled. That's not to say I'm an anti-Ai purist. If I want to do a query I open an app and then close it when I'm done. This work flow just works so much better than having some sort of constant monitoring trying to be available when not needed. From Clippy to Gemini the idea of lurking pro-active Ai assistance has failed. This needs to be a pull function not a push.
To save you all some time, this is the poll.
All this chatgpt and Gemini etc shit is a front to get government surveillance Ai data centers built.
None of this is about us, it's about New government and transitioning to a modern digital age of profiling, surveillance, and control.
We are being played out.
It's like nuclear arms race for the future control of the world.
God is dead. Universe is dead. We are slaves already and our last thread of connection to natural humanity and essence is going to be taken.
And everyone that complains about it helped fund it for decades buying all the stupid shit that they never needed to entertain themselves instead of seeking truth.
Even the debates against chatgpt etc are a distraction... They are building the surveillance state while everyone complains.... Because they know that's how psychology works.
I wouldn't doubt it if some of the healthcare info hacks happening are sponsored and that data is being used to beta their new profiling. Kind of like how they torrented for llm.
I can not for the life of me figure out a single problem or need I have in my life where the solution is "more technology".
I could not care less. I'm at zero Kelvin for technology. Nothing's moving, there's no interaction, I do not care.
Again, add this to the 'no shit' bag
Well yeah my limited experience is an android auto update replaced Assistant with Gemini, and now it can't do anything new, only the same things much slower and with occasional really weird results. Totally worth all the lay offs and resources hogging.
