Yeah I remember this being mentioned in a local presentation at university. As a great thing. Google doesn't search for what you write, but what you want.

The problem is that very often Google don't know what I want. Before they introduced this, I was able to define my query so that I got exactly what I wanted.

Google knows what it wants. Its job is to convince you to agree with it.
