    “Ai” is largely a gimmick. It can be an impressive gimmick at times, but the failure rate and misses are too common to really trust. I’m an enthusiast, so I have been dabbling a lot with what it can do, and theoretically there are some really cool applications - but we’re not there yet. I’ve got Gemini on my phone, and yeah… I can talk to it about things, but like… Why? The most useful thing I’ve done with it so far is ask it specific game information like, “hey, I’m in x level and I see a chest. I can’t see a way to get it right now, is it something I can come back and get later? Or do I have to figure it out now?”. And it can answer that.

    Saves me from having to look up an ad riddled guide, but that’s not a killer feature. Integration with aps could be huge, where it can actually do whatever task for you, or automate something tedious, but that’s still not super common. I’d rather personally and directly control anything vaguely important.

    It’s really a solution looking for a problem.
