First thoughts on watching: - Content in the video is moving pretty quickly. I need to pause the video to take a look at what's being shown. - "Generative AI is experimental" and "Generative AI may be inaccurate or offensive" is the first text I see at the top of Google Search? - That's a lot of AI generated content - the entire above-the-fold area is consumed. Does this negatively impact Google's ad revenue by usurping its visibility with their own generated content? - No AI generated imagery - all images shown are links to embeddings on websites. This seems fine. - "what planet is most similar to earth" gets multiple answers, but they all seem reasonable and helpful for exploring. A little odd that the first paragraph prominently talks about Mars/Venus, but all the supporting links diverge to planets outside of our solar system. I would think the supporting imagery would be for Mars/Venus. Not necessarily opposed to this, though, as query didn't say "in our solar system" and I'm down to explore more content. - "plants for a dark dorm room" response has some weird responses. Third result says "Lucky Bamboo" and the blurb says "can handle bright or moderate light" which isn't comforting when I'm asking about darkness. - I can't see the full query for the poem. It reads "write me a poem about my mischievous cat named whiskers using at least ..." which is unfortunate. The poem looks sane enough, but reads more like prose. When I reflect on the content being written... it's weird, right? "with whiskers so long and fluffy" -- what? Whiskers aren't fluffy. My cat named whiskers is fluffy. Unclear if the last three sentences are part of the poem and just formatted without bullet points or what happened there. - "dress for an outdoor wedding in miami in may in a trending color with 2-day delivery" didn't appear to draw information from a weather forecast (says "typical weather"), would be nice to get a warning if it's going to rain etc. Response seemed to reference "bold colors" and "trending silhouettes" when query was for trending colors not trending fashion styles, but maybe bold colors are trending. - why did asking follow up question "what about shoes?" show a YouTube video when I was interested in 2-day shopping selections? Was that information preserved and just not highlighted here? It's fine if so - I think cutting to a video was more impactful from a marketing perspective, but less helpful in terms of showcasing search abilities. - "compare two lunch spots near me that are good for big groups" looks like a rock solid answer, nice. - Using Google Search for commands like "make me a training plan for a 10k" feels foreign to me. It will take some getting used to if I'm going to repurpose Google Search for commands not just questions. Note that the response says "..if you have just started running" but that wasn't part of the request. Seems fine to assume, but not sure why it was needed. - The energetic audio, fast moving content, beat pause that goes into "yes yes yes" about shoes all makes me feel like I am a bit older than their target audience (I'm 33) and/or that this content is missing the mark on how trendy and cool it thinks it is. Same goes for "is a hotdog a sandwich" -- that went viral like half a decade ago? Don't get me wrong, I loved pitching that question to people. It was my go-to icebreaker for a good year, but that time has passed for me. Overall, I didn't see anything obviously wrong or explicitly embarrassing for Google, but I did not resonate with their attempt to portray themselves as hip/cool. I would've preferred a more cool/calm/collected/professional/"adult in the room" vibe that slowly showcased the overwhelming dominance of their AI abilities.
