...yooooo

That's TOO smart.

 

[mattp]

Apple seems to take the privacy route, I don't know if they'll ever go down a Google Now-like road.

they dont have the data to pull it off, either

 

[Majine]

Interesting use of context.

 

[jwk94]

Yeah this is getting really boring.

 

[Ensirius]

Wow, that context thing is crazy.

 

[Toki767]

Apple seems to take the privacy route, I don't know if they'll ever go down a Google Now-like road.

They're rumored to be working on something like it though.

 

[Skinpop]

I'm never gonna want to use a voice service.

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

...yooooo

That's TOO smart.

Sentient ass AI, Im telling you

 

[Baroquemantic]

Yo this is amazing.

 

[Marty Chinn]

What happens if you have two movies listed?

 

[TheAbsolution]

OK that's really cool.

 

[clav]

Doesn't Gmail already do this in the web version?

 

[darkwing]

On Tap is a gamechanger

 

[mattp]

i hope this context now shit will work via a google now update and doesn't require android m

 

[Sch1sm]

Then tell me. Who are you?

Maybe if you really were Jesus....

I am.

 

[Mr. Wonderful]

The problem I have with Google is the features seem to be as much for them as they are for you.

 

[jwk94]

That's not really helpful. It should give her a summary since that's better for a quick glance.

 

[EmiPrime]

Apple seems to take the privacy route, I don't know if they'll ever go down a Google Now-like road.

I don't think they'd be able to pull it off well even if they wanted to.

 

[Kinitari]

Wait the app doesn't need to make any modifications? This is actually unbelievably impressive, technically speaking.

 

[Askherserenity]

Whattt. The app doesn't have to make any sort of modifications? Pretty awesome.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Check this.

 

[Toki767]

On Tap sounds like it'll be a pretty big battery drain.

 

[Majine]

It's very impressive, and slightly scary.

 

[darkwing]

i hope this context now shit will work via a google now update and doesn't require android m

hmm it looks like it's using the home button, I guess it's M?

 

[Sch1sm]

God damn, this is good.

 

[vwnut13]

Boring.

Needs more old white men in black shirts for me to get excited.

 

[Kinitari]

On Tap sounds like it'll be a pretty big battery drain.

Won't be - the query is made when you tap

 

[Cub3h]

This should've been condensed to about 2 mins, it just keeps going on and on.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

What happens if you have two movies listed?

Two cards, I would assume. One for each movie.

 

[Ovek]

Very cool, but do we want Google Now "looking" at the content of every app you use on your phone?

 

[TheAbsolution]

They don't have to make modifications? Nice.

 

[nature boy]

Great google indexing even more shit on your phone.

 

[Ke0]

Guy in the audience was checking his pulse to make sure he was still alive.

 

[clav]

Great google indexing even more shit on your phone.

Chrome already kinda does this with search queries.

If you ever notice you read something on a web page and then open a new tab to begin searching for something, Google will already try to guess and autofill what you want to search based on the previous webpage.

 

[Altazor]

Now on Tap is the most interesting thing they've shown so far.

 

[Divvy]

This is a bit scary

Impressively scary

 

[……forgetit]

That is some cool future shit

 

[strikeselect]

Google Now continues to be the best thing Google has going on mobile. Cool stuff.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I need this. Definitely going back to a Nexus device this year. Maybe.

 

[riotous]

Wait the app doesn't need to make any modifications? This is actually unbelievably impressive, technically speaking.

It would be kind of strange if it did, technically speaking. (since the app is rather simple and just serves up info supplied by the servers)

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Hope you guys like Samsung's "S-On Tap"

Yup, most people don't even notice it it's so awesome.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Is Google based in India?

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

The problem I have with Google is the features seem to be as much for them as they are for you.

Of course. It can be handled in respectful ways or it can be abused. I think the point being made in this decade is that tech will start driving our society no matter who gets left. Even Tesla brought out that battery and it really seems to innovate on power usage, never expected that.

At my previous job, I met a guy who worked at Google for 2 - 3 years after college. I asked him how he felt about their capacity of information and he told me that its a serious thing and they recognize it as such. That sounded like the right idea honestly.

 

[oti]

Spinach & cheese pie you're welcome

 

[Toki767]

Hope you guys like Samsung's "S-On Tap"

Kinda curious how parts of On Tap will work on Samsung devices where there are no soft buttons.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Yo, this guy went to the Reggie school of presentation.

 

[D4Danger]

look at [popular thing]

oh I love [popular thing] *awkward moment*

*hold for applause*

here's something boring you can do with [popular thing]

 

[Kuros]

Note we're an hour in and G+ hasn't been mentioned and they're about to uncouple photos from it as well.

 

[Kinitari]

It means that android is looking at screen context without being prompted about important information on the page by any code. There isn't a flag attached to any strings or containers or anything that you need to apply, it looks at the entire screen pulls out the important bits of info and understands context. I can't even fathom how that's done.
