    I don't think it's an overstatement to say that with the right guardrails, this is the killer app for generative UI and perhaps general purpose AI for the masses. From a platform p…

    It's poetic that Google attempted to pursue apps within Google Assistant years ago, but the vision of apps within an AI assistant is more feasible now with LLMs that (whether actua…

    AFAIK, Google stopped making Timeline accessible on the web in favor of local-first storage to avoid having to give location data when subpoenaed by law enforcement (since they can…
