Google shuts down voice di­alogs

As of June 13, 2023, Google will shut down all so-​called "con­ver­sa­tional ac­tions" for their Google As­sis­tant. Every ac­tion that in­volves a speech di­a­log, like food or­der­ing, games, ed­u­ca­tional apps, story telling, every ap­pli­ca­tion that re­quires ques­tions and an­swers, will be can­celed. Ef­fec­tively, the Google As­sis­tant is crip­pled down to a sim­ple command-​and-control in­ter­face.
