What a great project! I’m going to explore it today. I’m also shamelessly adding my own capsule.

Können "KI"s eigentlich gopher- und gemini-Inhalte scrapen, oder ist das technisch gar nicht möglich?

Here is how I work with #LLMs. I use #Microsoft #Copilot for brainstorming. It is super friendly and always try to support your ideas. It is my Top Intelligence Officer. Then I will talk to #Gemini 2.5 about my novel ideas. Gemini is a seriously stubborn #AI representing the mainstream view of everything. I often learn a lot from arguing with it. Gemini serves as my Top Accounting/Gatekeeping Officer. Then I will take my finalized idea to #Claude4 Sonnet, my Top Executive Officer, to execute.

WARNING: #GOOGLE IS TRYING TO TRICK YOU INTO USING GEMINI AI AND FEEDING GEMINI YOUR DATA IN GMAIL AND OTHER APPS!

What Google is now doing should be ILLEGAL. PERIOD. For the first time I can recall in history of using Gmail, it just now popped a modal dialogue box -- DEMANDING that I choose whether or not I wanted "Smart Features" turned on -- which when you read the verbiage mostly means goddamned Gemini AI AND if you enable this you're giving Google permission to use your data to "improve" this horrifically invasive, inept, and misinformation spewing tech that steals data from websites for its own use without permission of those sites. DON'T LET IT SUCK IN YOUR EMAIL AS WELL!

There was no way I could find to exit the modal window without choosing YES or NO, which means my existing selection to NOT use Gmail Smart Features (long my preference) was NOT being honored. After saying NO to this disgusting query by Google, I was pushed to ANOTHER page where I was forced to choose again about "smart features" in "other" Google apps. I chose NO again and finally was permitted to escape this trap.

Note that while you can fairly easily check to make sure "smart features" are turned off in Gmail settings, I offhand don't have a clue as to how to find the similar settings in other Google apps that may have been affected by this absolutely disrespectful forced dialogue, as Google keeps trying to ram Gemini AI down our throats.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Google has become a DISGRACE.

My new RTX 5080 is ready to work with #Claude4 #Sonnet, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini 2.5, and two teams of small LLMs from #LMStudio and #Ollama. I am building this army of LLMs to conquer the cyberspace of knowledge. Now, instead of using only some 8B 4G models, I can finally run a 12B 8G model with zero latency. I bought my I9 RTX 4060 for #gaming. But I turned it into an AI machine. I no longer play video games, thanks to #Gemini 2.0. LLMs are #knowledge preservation machines.

Let's be clear about what #Google has been doing. They've been switching #Android users' phones from the legacy Assistant to #Gemini, even though Gemini cannot properly execute many of the directives that legacy Assistant can perform. This means that Google is KNOWINGLY breaking users' home and other action routines. In fact, the fine print actually notes that Gemini can't do everything legacy Assistant can do, and Google still switched users' phones over anyway. I had to go digging all over to find the setting to turn off goddamned Gemini for Assistant functions -- it had been switched to Gemini even though the Gemini app per se was not installed! This should be ILLEGAL.

#Google needs to provide users on the Web, phones, and any other platforms a ONE BUTTON way to turn off ALL sharing of any and all user data or actions with #Gemini #AI -- and to completely delete Gemini from their devices.

No more of this bullsh*t confusion about global settings vs. app data, Gemini apps vs. Gemini settings and more. It's a total train wreck and I don't blame anyone for not understanding whether or not their data is going to Gemini, because I AM NOT SURE MYSELF on my own devices!

This is either gross incompetence on Google's part or is being done purposely to make it as difficult as possible for users to understand whether or not Gemini is interacting with them, either obviously or behind the scenes.

If Google won't do this on their own, there need to be laws to force them. Enough of this garbage and manipulation. ENOUGH!

There's a lot of confusion about #Google forcing #Gemini onto #Android users, but yes, it's very bad

Starting July 7, Google will be pushing Gemini down the throat of Android users by default whether they want it or not. You can jump through hoops to turn it off from various apps, but it's confusing for most users and the email Google sent about this was also confusing as hell. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't meant to be confusing, but it was typical Google technospeak from the Bros who have no idea how ordinary people live and work.

Bottom line, despite articles trying to put a positive spin on this change, Google is forcing Gemini AI onto everyone by default rather than providing affirmative opt-in. Yes, that's evil.

Here's an article that summarizes the situation pretty well.
