I myself considered the idea kinda fun, with the cool graphics it was portrayed with, in the game trailers.
Even though I never ended up playing the game, that was probably one of the things that caused me to give a try to Google Assistant for a few hours, before I realised how it just wasn’t worth it.
And now they’ve got stuff with extremely high price/performance ratio, expecting people to find it desirable just because it is “fluent”.
I have enough experience listening to people who fluently speak information that they understand nothing of and don’t need a machine to do the same, just because it has a bigger dump of information and lower rational capabilities.
