How dumb can you get? : google

While true, I think those two steps are simple enough as is and really aren't improved by a digital assistant

Then what's the point of the digital assistant?

Seriously, people in the comments seem to have drunk so much google coolaid it isn't even funny. It's an obvious bug that doesn't let your "digital assistant" setup something that you personally would be able to setup.

There isn't a rationale here, there isn't some hidden tech, it's just shitty design.

It was not my aim to defend Google on my first remark, only to gently mock what seems a triviality. I found this post among gloomy world news, out of its proper context. Such a contrast can make anything seem absurd.

It's significantly faster to just tell it to set an alarm than it is to go into the app and do so manually, wanting it to work with all of the features isn't asking a lot

What a weird thing to be a dick about

scoff I have zero sympathy for people who want to use tools given to them to make their lives marginally easier.

For some people, for example people with disabilities, this kind of thing can be a big deal. Stop thinking only of yourself.
