I have no idea why they think that "full summaries, reviews and season-by-season breakdowns of content" is even a feature worth mentioning. The going value of that on the current market is $0. Heck, at times it's negative, you have to go out of your way to avoid the info if you don't want it. And there is no way whatsoever that this is happening locally. A $100 device is not spontaneously ingesting video, running speech-to-text on it or advanced video analysis, and processing it all down to a summary for you. If this is what we can expect from "Gemini" technology, it's damning it with faint praise. Who even cares. Nobody has the problem of really wanting a summary of a season of TV, but they just can't get it because darn it all they lack access to super advanced AI. Nobody had that problem 10 years ago and they still don't. If I were them I'd scrub that off the marketing, it's a negative if it's anything.

IMO that's the big question AI companies need to answer. If I can get a movie summary from a real intelligence for free online, why would I bother with an AI generated summary?

  Yeah -- I built a quick movie/show summarizer (easy to do with the latest models with larger than >50k token context window), I got literally 1 customer for $5 haha, but it was a fun little project to learn the various leading LLM APIs. It's here: recapflix.com (and it's not at all perfect, due to a number of reasons...). It was actually useful in the rare case that you wana skip an episode or get caught up on some obscure anime/show, but otherwise, meh.
