the google assistant is getting objectively worse and stupider. It worked better a couple years ago. The thing I hate the most about these opaque, closed box systems is the absolute dependence I have on them. I can't just freeze the version of software I'm running that is working. Nearly every app I have that works great, will at some point stop working and regress. Almost universally that is true. I despise the new era we're in where the user has zero control over what is running on their hardware.
