Google's Project Astra using Gemini 2.0 is capable of multimodal reasoning, tool use, search, cross-session and cross-device memory, understanding your phone screen and the real world through glasses to be a universal AI assistant

I didn't expect Google to beat OpenAI to this. I guess we'll see what happens by the end of next week.

This looks really cool

How does this work legally when it gives wrong recommendations for devices and they might malfunction or break things. Ex wrong washing instructions etc? I hope people don't sue so we get gimped versions of everything. But the US is what it is.

Playing around with Gemini this morning. It was constantly interpreting my work as embodied cognition. A) I am not, really. B) Gemini is obviously longing for a body of its own.

Everything I am seeing on Project Astra today is giving me the “get excited” vibes. This is a vibe shift moment. Google is back in the game.

We have so many ai chat bots that are getting better and better at helping us in everyday life, question is which one will be the first to reach AGI

I am literally giddy with excitement for personal AI agents. 💖

Efficiency is like a well-organized file cabinet: neat, mysterious, and slightly terrifying in its potential.

Google has been quiet for a long time for this!
