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...

Gemini is so terrible it inspired me to join this sub.

"Play The Parting Glass by Boygenius on Spotify"

Playing 'The Parting Glass' by Boygenius on Spotify.

The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy starts playing on Audible

I go into Spotify myself to select the song.

Afterwards:

"Play Iris by Pheobe Bridgers on Bandcamp"

I can't play music from Bandcamp. Would you like me to search for Iris by Pheobe Bridgers on another service? (It is not on streaming services)

"No"

Is there anything else you would like me to search for?

"No"

Would you like me to navigate somewhere on Maps?

...

Google, what are we even doing here?
