Cool, I guess? I don't see anything actually useful.

Right now I'd like Google Translate/Assistant that would translate everything it hears and simply show the language next to the translation on screen.

Would make my talks with several coworkers so much easier.

There was a device that did exactly this, and it also seemed to do voice-to-voice pretty well but I can't remember the name.

I laugh every time Google's multibillion dollar AI shows me the same ads for already installed apps, still shows me ads for women's products (they 100% know I'm male) and can't understand I'm on an anime songs binge (or rock, or a certain band) this evening.

On that note, I can't update my OnePlus anymore. I know they stopped releasing updates, but I thought they'd keep the OTA update servers online. Guess AWS is too expensive.

Uh... Google Assistant Interpreter mode exists for years now?

This exists. There is also a live transcription tool for deaf people that works really good (in german tested, i was very suprised) since android 12.

Whoa, OK, thanks!

So much this! I see 10 Google Fiber ads a day on YouTube even though I'm on their service and have an IP address they've assigned, lol.


Shared clipboard is decently useful, but that's probably it
