Jeff Dean, Sanjay, et al have achieved so much. I'm very happy for them. Truly deserving.
Sometimes I couldn't resist wondering if I'll ever do work that has a tenth of the impact of theirs.

> Between us, we have pioneered massive scale computing and led the creation of critical infrastructure, products, and foundational AI advances that the world relies on, including multiple generations of Google Search, Google Ads, Google News, Google Translate, Google File System, MapReduce, BigTable, Spanner, TensorFlow, Pathways, TPUs, AlphaChip, AlphaStar, AlphaCode, AlphaFold, Gemini, model distillation, mixture-of-experts model architectures, word2vec, sequence-to-sequence models, chain of thought reasoning, neural architecture search, and multiple generations of Large Language Models (LLMs) among others.
Not a bad combined CV.

Gemini has done absolutely nothing for me. I can't even shut off the navigation feature on my phone using only hands free, when I get close to my destination. I have to take my eyes off the road, look down, and tap to exit.
Google's advanced AI cannot even exit a mobile app.
Jeff and Sanjay's contributions far predate LLMs and influence far outside of Google.
Jeff was a ACM Fellow in 2009 and published the massively influential MapReduce paper in 2004.
Antigravity + Gemini Pro absolutely RIPS through fullstack react + react-native apps / systems. I pay ~$20/month and I basically don't have to do my real work anymore. My time is freed up to learn systems programming and blender.
Oh nice have things stabilized with models/quotas and Antigravity is usable with the Pro plan again? I was getting a crazy amount of value out of Gemini CLI for “free” on my Pro plan but after the shutdown struggled to make agy work with the updated quotas/bigger models without instantly being rate limited and just started doing everything on Codex/Opencode Go.
I should give it another try…

How does this comment relate to the parent comment?
it shows an example of how their AI cannot perform a basic task, as simple as exiting a program.
