Watching that demo video, I wonder why they chose to use that? Gemini only talked about some useless surface knowledge that would be forgotten quickly, whereas if she actually read the Wikipedia page she would learn more and retain it better.

right? not great examples. Here are the kind of prompt examples I would have used instead: - explain this symbol to me - what TV show am I watching - how much is the house I'm looking at worth (bring in geo-location) - How often should I be watering this plant - how many calories are in this meal - what type of car is this - whats the exact name/type of this screw part - what are the exact dimensions of this door frame - what kind of style of art is this - how often should I be taking this medication - how many copies has this book sold - which part of the world is this pic from

  Because besides the TV show one none of your examples benefit from the video/"live" modality? Or at least I wouldn't be motivated to use video for that.

  My meta glasses can do a decent number of those, with the ideal form factor for those use cases.

  or even the internet one. It would have been nice if it was like "I see you have a NetMan 402-BX with a blinking amber light. That's a common failure mode that can be fixed by updating the firmware. You need to press and hold the power button and put a pin into the reset hole..." You know ... something more than "reboot that shit"

It’s aimed at normies. What you watched would blow their minds and be exactly what they were hoping for.
