Tried an android phone given by my company. Gemini is at your fingertips, with a single button press. That’s INCREDIBLE! [everything Siri never delivered]. Put that into a headphone or headphone-enabled glasses. Plus a ring. And the need for an advanced UI-based phone fades away for many usages.




I have a Pixel besides my iPhone (for reasons). When I got a Pixel 9 about a year ago, my feeling was the same (Gemini as at your fingertips. INCREDIBLE!). A few months later after the novelty wore off, I just found the push of AI everywhere in Pixel OS and Google apps just annoying. I now use GrapheneOS on my Pixel. One of the many reasons is that it does not try to push AI anywhere.

Now I just have a single LLM (Le Chat) isolated in its own little app sandbox, never getting in my face unless I choose to open it myself.


Isn't this just Facebook's Ray-Bans in a nutshell?

Facebook is lacking access to the interesting data. If you are in the Google ecosystem then your private and business life is likely already there.
