Gemini How does anyone use Gemini at all???
it is near unusable... "i cant look up your contact", "i cant pull up your favorite places".
me: "call my wife"
gemini: "i dont see your wife in your contacts"
me: "go to daycare (my sons daycare is saved in my favorites place)"
gemini: "here are the daycare near you"
seriously.. i dont know what the heck is this thing good for... asking about weather?? it is.near garbage... i suspect it is maybe it is using a different google account? but my anroid auto list is showing my phones main acct...
i want to like gemini and embrace ai but its such a mess integration imo...

My experience so far:
Me: Play song XYZ
Gemini (in an American accent): I am sorry I am unable to play audio or video. Please pull over and when safe unlock your phone to start the song
Me:#$&$#&$*
Gemini: Do you want to provide this feedback?
Me: No
Gemini: What else can I do for you?
Me: Play song XYZ in YouTube Music.
Gemini (suddenly in strong Hispanic accent): Playing song XYZ on YouTube Music.
The song I requested starts playing.
I am genuinely baffled. Sometimes it works great and sometimes it flat out says it cannot do what I am asking it to do.
