Exactly this.

One thing that surprises me about Gemini is how weak it can be at location-based questions, despite Google’s extensive mapping and business data.

For example, I recently asked where I could buy a very common household item nearby. Instead of saying it wasn’t sure or checking the available location and business information, it confidently suggested places that turned out to be incorrect. I expected much better use of Google’s existing data in that kind of scenario.

Now they want to play with the other kids in the same league and do this by applying the same marketing concept? Pure comedy gold.
