There are some Google AI tools that I think are absolutely fantastic.
I often come across demos, tutorials, and influencers showcasing different Google AI capabilities. But the first thing that always strikes me is this: why is using Google’s AI so fragmented?
To create content or use different AI features, you have to jump between multiple websites, multiple products, and constantly changing names that are hard to keep track of. Instead of bringing everything together into a clear, understandable ecosystem—like Anthropic has done, or like OpenAI is clearly trying to do—it feels like everything lives in a different place.
Honestly, it almost feels as if Google’s AI teams are disconnected from one another. In some ways, it even gives me the impression of a company that’s operating like an old, established enterprise rather than a modern AI-first company.
To me, this is completely counterproductive. It creates unnecessary chaos for users and makes it much harder to connect the dots between the many excellent AI tools Google already has.
Am I the only one who feels this way?
