Logan Kilpatrick, lead product manager for Google DeepMind, Gemini, and all AI products at Google, said Google AI Mode will be the default for Google Search “soon.” He said this after Google made google.com/ai go directly to AI Mode’s interface on Friday afternoon.
Great.
Next stage in the enshitification-process. 😒Can someone TL;DR on what “AI mode” is? Haven’t used Google in a while, but it sounds like a chatbot to me.
How can it be profitable? Surely the energy cost would surpass that value of a single search?
I’ve been sitting on the Pixel update bringing AI to my 7 Pro for 70+ days at this point. Been meaning to switch to Graphene, might be about that time.
My Pixel 6’s battery recently started expanding. I considered getting a new phone, but when I asked the dude at the kiosk what my options are for something that isn’t filled with AI integration, he laughed.
I ordered a new battery online and had my phone fixed.
Where did you order your battery, and how did you replace it? My mom’s 7a is having battery issues and this may be a good path for her.
Ai is sometimes correct.
My 6th grader is sometimes correct too, but I’d still rather ask real sources than take her word for everything.
Or better yet, ask or lookup multiple sources, so you can somewhat fact check.
