Google Assistant is getting scrapped, and you may not like what's replacing it

Before LLMs took the main stage, Google Assistant had been around, helping people set reminders and navigate their phone. Then came Google's LLM, Gemini. All of a sudden, the Assistant's days seemed numbered, as it didn't have the same reasoning and ability to decipher what a user wants as Gemini. Now, Google has confirmed that its newer, shinier AI will take over the reins from Assistant, and it doesn't seem you'll have a choice in the matter.
