Google Assistant will vanish from Android phones and connected devices in September

Well this fucking sucks. Gemini is complete garbage in Android Auto, I thought I was stuck with it until I discovered a couple weeks ago that I could choose to continue using the assistant.

Now it’s being ripped from my hands again.

This is total ass. Fuck Gemini. Fuck AI. Fuck Google.
