Also a key difference: Google, OpenAI etc. place a lot of value in selling these AI services to third parties. So they have to hype up their offering, constantly talking about what's coming around the corner, etc. etc.
By comparison I think Apple will be very content to have an entirely closed AI ecosystem that you automatically get when buying one of their devices. They don't have to sell it in the same way.
Oh and this stuff was amazing years ago, now it's boring. They apparently did some RAG applications that is usually a niche, specialised applications that small companies will do as SaaS. I doubt that any of this will see wide adoption, therefore I expect everything to be dropped and added to the list of "Killed by Google".
IMHO, Google needs to focus. Stop throwing things to the wall and see what sticks, instead do something substential and stick with it.
One nice thing that Android does now and I don't think iOS does is let you swipe up from the bottom to select text or images being displayed on the screen. It's useful for copy/pasting (even when the text is baked into an image) and for translating foreign text. It seems to use OCR, so sometimes you'll get weird errors like a 1 where an l should be, but it's overall useful.
Execution is to be seen though...

I can also do that: I can think about something possible and say soon you’ll be able to do it. It’s not impressive…
Do I get any of this with my Google one account or do I need a business account or a Google one plus ai?
