- makeitdouble 5y agoGoogle has a long history of: - getting into fields to offer a free product then discontinuing it - integrating random apps and services into its search and blocking more that half of search results pages with its own content. This seems to come straight into the second category. I mean, according to the article it was its own property on the side, living its life. You could eventually summon from the assistant if you wanted to, but they still had to bring it as a widget into the main search engine. Why.

- wjnc 5y agoMy initial thought was: "What a good way to dark pattern users into allowing Chrome to use the microphone". Tried it out and indeed using this on iOS 15 would give Chrome (seemingly permanent) microphone rights. So thanks, but no thanks. Thanks for the compliment of being creative in my hate.
