Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by default

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Really? I use the Google Homes and they say "today it'll be cloudy, with a high of x and a low of y".
Sometimes it also starts going off about "by the way, if you want a summary of your day, just say 'good morning'" or some shit like that which is annoying but not quite annoying enough to figure out how to turn off.
It will give concise explanations like that, but say I want to know the weather 71 miles away at the place where my husband works? Or even 20 miles away where I work. I have to ask it to tell me the weather where I am, tell me the weather in "windhaven", tell me the weather in "Waterdeep"etc. Or I can just pull up Home Assistant and see a card with that information (which used to work on Google Assistant Smart Displays, but doesn't work on their current pixel tablet). And I even have a routine set up for this, and now I get a bunch of error messages on my phone and so on. So they broke a lot of things that used to work in Google Assistant, and now Gemini can't even do those things at all.
