Google’s most powerful AI tools are not for us

At I/O 2025, Nothing shown by Google seemed new. Instead, the company returned to us about the familiar siege with its own AI prowess. Most of the two hours, spent on playing products like Google Like productive AI apps And and And a new $ 250 per month .

During Tuesday’s keynote, I thought of my first visit to Mountain View in 2018. I/O 2018 is different. Between For Android, completely And also Google felt like a company that had a pulse on what people wanted from technology. In fact, after the same year, my colleague wrote a story with Cherlin less name . “Companies often do not make qualities that really help, but in 2018, Google has proved that its software can change your life,” she wrote at the time, referring to Pixel 3. And and Symptoms.

Google Photos from I/O 2025, Google Photos or, if you are more generous for the company, call to screening or duplex? Google is the only one that comes to my mind To meet Google. This is a useful feature for many, and Google has spent about a minute to talk about it.

I am sure that there are people who are eager to use Jules to Vibe Code or Weo 3 to create video clips, but are those products really transforming? Some people can argue otherwise “AI filmmakers”, but you think your life will be good for the last time you can only get a computer to turn it into a 30 -second clip.

In contrast, affect the night vision. With a feature, Google has revolutionized the phones by showing that software, The minus camera can overcome the physical limits of hardware. Most importantly, the night vision is a response to the real problem that people have in the real world. It encourages companies like Samsung and like Apple To capture, now any smartphone worth buying has serious low light capabilities. The Knight Site has changed the industry.

You have to pay $ 250 per month to use Vio 3 and Google’s other border models, as long as you want you to tell you what the company wants for you as long as you want: they are not for you and I am not. In the past, the company has a skill to make the context of what it shows in a way that resonates with wide people.

By 2018, the machine learning in everything Google is already at the forefront, and, than any other large tech company at the time, Google is on the brink of the bleeding of that revolution. Yet now and later the difference is that most of the Google’s AI’s AI in 2018 seemed to be useful for people in the service of tools and features. Since then, for Google, the AI ​​has gone from one way to the end and its end, and we are all worse for it.

Less less doubtful features such as AI mode also provide questionable use. Google And since then it has been made available to more people. The problem with AI mode is that it is designed to solve the company’s own manufacturing problem. We all know that the quality of Google search results has been significantly reduced over the past few years. Instead of fixing the broken ones and making its system difficult by SEO Forms, Google represents us the future of his search engine.

The thing is that the chat boat is not an alternative to the right search engine. I often use it To investigate the things that are interested in me. However, detailed and expressing a question is great, chatting can be done and often things are wrong. We all know the errors produced when Google The characteristic. The AI ​​may not be in the news no longer in the news, but they are still likely to produce awkward mistakes. See the screen shot sent by my colleague Chris Holt to me recently.

I don’t think this is a danger i ended with/o 2025 show The company is a platform to review the failure of the failure of the company. Do not even forget that the operating system is Android, every day that billions of people interact every day Live Stream tape pre -tied The week before. Currently, Google thinks it is an organization that is interested in repeating mistakes . Instead of trying to meet people wherever they need, Google is creating a few people asking for a few. I don’t know about you, but it doesn’t make me enthusiastic for the future of the company.
