Google needs to pace themselves. AI studio, Antigravity, Banana, Banana Pro, Grape Ultra, Gemini 3, etc. This information overload don't do them any good whatsoever.

Why? They're mostly different markets. Most people using Nano Banana Pro aren't using Antigravity.
A cluster of launches reinforces the idea that Google is growing and leading in a bunch of areas.
In other words, if it's having so many successes it feels like overload, that's an excellent narrative. It's not like it's going to prevent people from using the tools.

What in the Gemini 3 powered astroturf bot is this?
They probably just had an internal mandate to ship by end of year.

Yeah, if this is the best spin you've got I'm doubling down. Those teams were on the chopping block.

Also, if you knew anything, you'd know that AI product teams are the least likely to be on the chopping block right now.
Google will never beat the "sunset after 2 years" allegations on all products that don't have "Google __" in the name
It reminds me of AWS services: I can't tell what they are because they've been named by a monkey with a typewriter.
Powell Doctrine, but for AI. No one should dispute that Google is the leader in every(?) category of AI: LLM, image gen, video editing, world models, etc.
I feel it's strategic, like a massive DDoS/"shock and awe" style attack on competitors. Gotta love it as PROsumers though!
Stock market seems to agree with their strategy....
Maybe? or lemmings following BH purchase of $4B in Google stock this week assuming "Buffett only buys value stocks; it must be ready to grow!"

... and has a tendency to disagree past the Peak of Inflated Expectations.
This cluster of launches might not be intentional. It could just be a bunch of independent teams all trying to get their launches out before the EOY deadline.
Agree. I can't keep up with it, it's hard to grasp my head around them, where to go to actually use them, etc
Grape Ultra?
That part was a joke to illustrate the point.

I mean, you gotta diversify your portfolio so later on you can push some of them to the graveyard.

They are riding the current buzzword wave. It'll eventually subside. And 80% of it will end up on Google's impressive software graveyard:
