    The brain grows stronger, more efficient, and more resilient the more you challenge and exercise it… leave this mess alone.

    So, my mother spent years trying to get me to do things on my own and now I have Google trying to help me do it for me? I don’t think so. BTW, I gave this a thumbs down because I don’t like the idea of Google trying to do so much. Your presentation is great. Google delivery, not so much.

    If this all works, Google just told Open Claw to “hold my beer.” I’m blind, so I find this kind of functionality to be really useful, but I can understand why other people might be kind of uncomfortable giving Google the amount of information required…

    I feel like Apple should reverse course in replacing the SIRI engine with Gemini. It should stop relying on somebody else’s backend.

    I love Google Search because it’s the best. I use Firefox as an alternative browser for
    certain things I don’t want Google to know about. I made sure I signed out so it’s not scraping my queries. There needs to be a stronger alternative in the search space that doesn’t feed off your data.

    No thanks! I do not want Google doing anything for me. I am sick of ai being forced on me.

    I can see AI absolutely destroying anything creative because there is no accountability. HOWEVER, AI will never really change the world unless it is deployed in mission critical tasks like healthcare, law, government, finance, etc. Unless Google is willing to back up their AI answers with a sort of errors and omissions policy, there is NO RECOURSE if it gives you bad advice. If I get new windows for my home I know if something is done wrong, the window company will come out and fix it. If Google tells me to claim a tax deduction when it is not really allowed and I get hit with penalties will Google pay for the bad advice. Of course not. It they did, people would manipulate it to get the answer they want and then claim “Google advised me to do it”. This will probably happen because Google gives legal and accounting advice (and medical etc) without being licensed. It disclaims it, but that only goes so far. The law FORBIDS them from doing this but the regulators are so behind they won’t stop it.

    You want more AI slop? Let Google do it. You want 5GB of storage instead of 15GB? Let Google do it. You want Google to secretly install 5GB of software on your devices? Google just did it 😂

    This is so weird how enthusiastically the presenter talks about a feature where an AI agent automatically spends your money in the background. I’d wanna decide myself when I do a purchase.

    I miss the Google that used to live by the axiom “Don’t be evil.”

    Now Google non-consensually rams AI vomit down our throats.

    Google is poison. It needs to end.

    How much water did it cost to make that awful tiger astronaut rubbish?

    How much extra has been forced non-consensually onto people’s electricity bills to pay for that ugly tiger astronaut rubbish?

    I am sickened by the reporter’s unbridled, non-critical enthusiasm for this? Has money changed hands? This is propaganda, not reporting.

    My cousin laughed at me for reading Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl. Funny thing is he asked to borrow money again last month. I said no without any guilt this time.

    I always saw myself as the responsible type. Paid bills early, worked hard, saved a bit every month. After reading Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl I realized I was just a well behaved poor person following rules made to keep me there forever.

    May 22, 2026 at 4:52 pm

    I used to believe rich people were lucky or corrupt. After reading Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl I see it is mostly financial literacy. The kind they deliberately keep out of schools so regular people stay stuck.

  36. @marinaf2119

    May 22, 2026 at 5:00 pm

    Three months after reading Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl my whole language around money changed. I stopped saying I cant afford that and started asking why I cant afford that. That tiny shift is already opening new doors.

  37. @Sweets6889-k4k

    May 22, 2026 at 5:01 pm

    Reading Smart Broke Dumb Rich by Zor Veyl hit me hard. I finally understood my parents were not bad with money. They just never got the right information. The game was rigged before they even started.

    4:55 “Now you know what a tiger looks like if it was a humanoid astronaut!”
    Ah… yes… Back in my day, we used to call this furry art, and one would simply craft their own fursona by commissioning a piece or picking up a pen and paper. We required precisely 0 data centers to do so.

    Folks, reject modernity (AI slop) and embrace tradition (furry art).
