First question that came to mind was when will Google kill this service and when will I have to export all my content?

This was immediately my first thought when I saw the product. When is the expiry day? Why aren’t they making it clear? Also I think this will inspire other companies and help those companies (cough microsoft, apple) create their own version which they will integrate to their own lineup. It will be interesting seeing it in future. Disclaimer: I am not AI and I typed this response in my tablet. People for some reason h…

You don't sound like a bot so much as your responses are probably extremely average and predictable, thus aligning with bot content.

A new prototype from Gogle for collecting user data and will be dumped anytime soon once it collects enough data or it fails.

Woof. Talk about a bad reputation exemplified. I can't imagine what it's like working on stuff like this at Google, earnestly just trying to make a great product people will want to use, only to have to fight decades of user-hostile product destruction that the company has done.

Because it's always either a data grabber or a soon-to-be-killed service

Maybe if Google wanted to have a better reputation they wouldn't habitually kill products.

Looks like somebody at GOGLE is up for grabbing that promotion! Congrats to authors on their Lxx level and promo grant...

Why would I use any google service with a death countdown on its forehead? I have migrated away from Google almost completely. I can’t imagine being a product team there and having to defend product’s existence for more than a year.

Because now you can ask the service itself when it will be shut down.

This is perfect.
