Nothing. The closest thing to a change in behaviour is people using AI to search instead of asking me or Google
So annoying how Google has a monopoly to just put that as default to people.
About 2 hour's ago Gemini insisted it's 32 hours until tomorrow's BF update. It comes out in like 18 hours.
I like how when I ask Gemini to navigate, it fucking tells me to use the Google Maps app.
Assistant did it no problem, but Google killed it and forced their shitty AI on us.
Oh yeah it's fucking annoying. The assistant without AI used to work better. Especially now that I'm controlling my lights with it.
Although I must say that the Philips Hue mobile UI is sooo garbage that I still prefer using Gemini to change my lights. And Hue has had a few articles saying they can just use code to use the lamps themselves as motion detectors, because they're WiFi transceivers and can sense how much the connection is bothered by you moving. Which would make me stop using them if I had anything to hide.
I mean, I know the whole "nothing to hide" isn't an argument against overt privacy invasion, but I just can't go back to using lightswitches with a lamp with one hue and intensity.
Nuh-uh. RGB all the way.
It's so much better using light as an alarm than an actual alarm clock. With an alarm clock the waking up is like when you wake up to a predator. Alarming. Stressful. Waking up from light is like waking up to the sun rising. Peaceful. Calm. You don't even notice it.
Gemini is literally broken as an assistant: Can't navigate, can't set reminders, can't use the calendar correctly, and at times even setting a fucking timer can be a challenge. Ridiculous!
Yeah and half of those things it keeps asking to go and use Google workspaces or some other "give more permissions pls" shit.
"Set calendar for-"
"yOu ShOuLd UsE tHe CaLeNdEr!"
There are plenty of ways to control your rgb lights without a LLM made by an evil company run by privacy-hating, election-manipulating warmongerers. Just sayin'.
