There's a Product from Google which I like very much: "Discover" in Google Chrome on Android devices.
It is similar to what the normal "Google" app offers: snippets with links to articles which may either be currently relevant for me (currently as in: this day you searched a lot for X, so we recommend you Y), or which may be a bit older but still of interest to me. A personalized Google News but much less news oriented.
I don't use this in the "Google" app, because there the link-sharing is broken: it only shares the link, while in Google Chrome the share button shares the link but also provides the title of the article.
The point is that I want have this "Discover" feature on Google Chrome on the desktop, not only on the phone or on the tablet. I don't use my phone for browsing and my tablet only when in bed. I'm a desktop-first person. There I have 3 monitors, a surface where I can place my cup tea and my pencil.
Google is telling me: We don't want your behavior. We want you to use a phone or a tablet, we will reward you for this behavior by granting you access to the our analysis of the information which we aggregated about you. Else we'll punish you by not giving you this tool.
I wonder where they will be offering Bard, and at this point, I'm close to considering using Bing, which was always out of question for me.
The current message from their CEO: who cares? Publish it, let us see for ourselves what it can do.
