Daily Brief was one of the many new AI features unveiled during the Google I/O keynote. It’s Google’s attempt at a generative AI assistant, designed to help organize your life and pull information from various sources. If that sounds familiar, it should. Google tried something similar with Daily Hub when the Pixel 10 series launched, only to pull it back for further improvements shortly after.
It’s also similar to what Samsung has tried with Now Brief, with limited success. On paper, it seems like a fantastic idea. I’d enjoy having a generative assistant that pores over my communications, schedule, and local weather to come up with the best plan of attack for my day — but that’s far from reality.
