Users Question Whether Google's Astra Delivers on Its Persistence Promise
Ninxosk · reddit · 2026-09-05
A Reddit user raises doubts about Google's Project Astra: one of its most hyped capabilities was "persistence" — retaining context and state across sessions, which would be a game changer for businesses wanting agents that handle general tasks and automation. The poster argues the current release shows nothing revolutionary on this front and asks the community if they're missing something. The thread reflects growing skepticism about the gap between Google's agent vision and actual delivery.
