Necessary step before making a move into hardware. An object you have to remember to use quickly gets forgotten in favor of your phone.

But a device that reaches out to you reminds you to hook back in.

Google's edge obvious here is the deep integration it already has with calendar, apps, and chats and what not that lets them surface context-rich updates naturally. OpenAI doesn't have that same ecosystem lock-in yet, so to really compete they'll need to get more into those integrations. I think what it comes down to ultimately is that being "just a model" company isn't going to work. Intelligence itself will go to z…

How can you have an "edge" if you're shipping behind your competitors all the time? Lol.

Google is the leader in vertical AI integration right now.

Technology service technology, rather than technology as a tool with a purpose. What is the purpose of this feature?

This reads like the first step to "infinite scroll" AI echo chambers and next level surveillance capitalism.

On one hand this can be exciting. Following up with information from my recent deep dive would be cool.

On the other hand, I don't want to it to keep engaging with my most recent conspiracy theory/fringe deep dives.

Google had to make google assistant less useful because of concerns around antitrust and data integration. It's a competitive advantage so they can't use it without opening up their products for more integrations...

My pulse today is just a mediocre rehash of prior conversations I’ve had on the platform.

I tried to ask GPT-5 pro the other day to just pick an ambitious project it wanted to work on, and I’d carry out whatever physical world tasks it needed me to, and all it did was just come up with project plans which were rehashes of my prior projects framed as its own.

I’m rapidly losing interest in all of these tools. It feels like blockchain again in a lot of weird ways. Both will stick around, but fall well short of the tulip mania VCs and tech leaders have pushed.

I’ve long contended that tech has lost any soulful vision of the future, it’s just tactical money making all the way down.

Holy guacamole. It is amazing all the BS these people are able to create to keep the hype of the language models' super powers.

But well I guess they have committed 100s of billions of future usage so they better come up with more stuff to keep the wheels spinning.
