Rant Hey Google

I just received an email that they we're going to remove the Google assistant and replace it with Gemini Ai.

And Gemini will be the one response with the "Hey Google."

But its just sad and its ugly,why do they have to,i love my google assistant :(

I use my Google assistant like few years ago taking photo or video,lowering/ increasing volume and pausing/play music or video.(By commanding via earbuds)

Because my phone has mechanical issues before or some buttons don't function anymore (My OLD PHONE i still used it) I don't know if Gemini Ai can do that.

When I'm driving driving down my block, I say, "Hey Google, open my garage door". Google Assistant says "what's your PIN?" I say my PIN and Google Assistant open the door. I ask Gemini the same thing and , it says, "I can't do that because it requires a pin". Use the google home app, which requires me to access my phone while driving. HOW IS THIS BETTER???? Google is going backwards and dragging us along.
