This post argues that Gemini should not be treated merely as a chatbot but as an AI system embedded in the Google ecosystem: covering Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Maps, YouTube, Photos, Docs, etc.
Listed capabilities include: reading emails, summarizing documents, navigation, generating videos, building apps without code, researching across many websites, and family plan sharing. The core point is that many people only use it as a search box, utilizing only a fraction of its capabilities.
