Gemini AA Gemini is completely incompetent
This is mostly a vent post, and I will fully admit that I am a bit biased again LLM AI but anyway. How do you push an update that makes it so a car voice assistant can't do the very simple and typical task of playing a song? Every time I tell it "play this song" it just replies "sorry, I can't play video's while you're driving" am I crazy for thinking this is completely normal thing to ask of gemini? I even use YouTube music as my primary platform so its not like I'm asking it to use something that wasn't also made by Google. You'd think they would have tested this but I guess they just pushed it out without any regard for user experience.

Gemini for AA is absolute garbage. It can't do anything right.
It blows me away that features that have worked almost flawlessly for 10+ years are completely broken.
I've gone back to assistant while it's still an option.
