    This Gemini feature in the YouTube app convinced me to finally ditch the Google Assistant

    Ever since Google announced that it would begin phasing out its Assistant for Gemini as the default voice assistant, I have found myself struggling to pick between the two. On one hand, I like the familiarity and reliability of the Assistant but on the other, Gemini is the only one still getting new features. The latter is exactly what finally pushed me to start using Gemini more seriously — despite the occasional hiccup and hallucination.

    In particular, I’ve found one Gemini feature that’s quietly worked its way into my day-to-day life: the Ask about this video button that only pops up when you’re watching a video within the YouTube app. It’s surprisingly easy to overlook this feature, but it has proven far more useful than I expected and completely changed how I consume certain types of videos.
