Generative AI was always garbage and our oligarch overlords tried to out dick-wave each other for years wasting hundreds of billions of dollars and cratering their in-house teams.
Will they learn their lesson and abandon this impossibly broken technology?
Nope!

while totally wasting power and our environment
Search is to Google as F150 is to Ford...anything that threatens it makes the whole thing crumble.
Yeah, it turns out when you have no serious competition, you can pull shenanigans like that.
Too much AI not enough innovation.
Honestly, I don't need innovation in every area, I would settle for existing systems getting more robust and streamlined and better standardized and compatible to each other (e.g. in the space where IoT devices all have their own app make some standard to get rid of that).
I started my de-googling journey and mostly completed it in 2019 and then ended up fully deleting my Google account in 2023. I still watched IO for the newest Android updates because of Lineage OS but other than that I wasn't interested and last year's IO was just total shit. If you are running base AOSP Android, it has not changed very much in several years.
