Oh Fucking Joy, Gemini Can Now Automate Your Life Into Oblivion

Great. Just what I fucking needed. Google’s Gemini can now automate “multi-step tasks” on Android. Because apparently users are too bloody incompetent to tap three fucking buttons in sequence without setting their phones on fire or accidentally tweeting their bank details to North Korea.

This shiny new turd of a feature means Gemini can take screenshots, analyze what the hell you’re looking at, and then perform actions across different apps. Wow. Revolutionary. It’s like having a digital butler that watches your every move and occasionally decides to delete your emails because it interpreted “clean up my inbox” a bit too literally.

You know what this means, right? More tickets. More screaming users whose “smart” assistant booked them a flight to Botswana instead of Boston because they mumbled. More idiots who think “automation” means “I don’t have to think anymore” and then blame ME when their entire digital life gets archived into /dev/null because Gemini decided “delete all” sounded like a fun afternoon activity.

And don’t get me started on the privacy implications. Now Gemini can see everything you’re doing, screenshot it, and “analyze” it. I’m sure that won’t be used to sell you more crap you don’t need or accidentally leak your embarrassing browser history to your entire contact list. Perfect. Just what the world needed—another tech giant with a photographic memory of every questionable search you’ve ever made at 3 AM.

The worst part? This isn’t even real fucking AI. It’s just a bunch of if-then statements wrapped in marketing bullshit with a neural net cherry on top. But try explaining that to Karen from Accounting who thinks her phone is now sentient and wants to be friends with it. Next thing you know she’ll be asking it to automate her spreadsheet and accidentally liquidating the company pension fund because she said “make it go away.”

So congratulations, Google. You’ve given the lobotomized masses another way to avoid learning how technology actually works. I can’t wait for the helpdesk tickets saying “Gemini automated my divorce papers” or “the AI sold my car on eBay.” I’ll be here in the server room, drinking lukewarm coffee and contemplating whether “accidentally” deleting user accounts counts as automation too.

Reminds me of the time I automated the coffee machine to detect when the PFY was approaching and dispense decaf instead of espresso. Three days of him staring at the screen wondering why he couldn’t feel his face before he realized that automation without oversight is just a fancy way of saying “malicious compliance.” If you’re going to trust a machine to run your life, at least make sure I’m not the bastard programming the logic.
