This has got to be a prank.
Every new stupid implementation of AI feels like a prank.
So it's still Your device not Gemini device. I'll wait couple of years.
Gemini depends on the Google app, disable it, and it dies.
Have you noticed how the Google app, the one that supposedly just does search and list news articles, has like 400 MB? Over time it accumulated 2GB cache... how?
this can be great for a disabled person i guess, i wonder if it works locally in a degoogled way
Saying "You're not alone" is supposed to be a wholesome thing to show someone that you care. Instead, it's AI companies squeezing as much data out of customers and injecting as much AI into everything they can.
Society really took a wrong turn didn't it?
No, Google is using their influence and our reliance to steer society. Please don't forget how passive language enables the worst abusers.
In the absence of being able to switch to Graphene (Don't own a pixel), I've done everything I can to replace Google Apps with FOSS alternatives, and disabled Google Assistant on my device entirely.
I know none of that will stop a determined Google eventually fucking with me, but at least I'm trying.
I'm so damned tired of the modern corporate world.
Dammit don't make me switch to apple phones, I hate apple. I hate Google too but FFS all you need to do is stay out of my way and the one thing you continuously do is stand in my way...
GTFO of my way! Piss off with that AI crap that nobody asked for
