Who gives a fuck about how many syllables it has? Not sure if you're being sarcastic but it has absolutely zero impact.
I'm not being sarcastic. It's definitely something people usually think about when naming a product.
I know people think about the name but it makes no difference.
Many of the top companies in the world have 3 syllables. I have zero idea what you're upset about, not to mention the obvious fact that Google themselves would have spent significantly more resources than you thinking about it and decided that it was fine.
"Hey Bard" vs "Hey Gemini"
It absolutely does make a difference. Maybe think before talking out of your ass.
Yes for all those connected Gemini devices that exist. You know ok google is 4 syllables at the moment? All that previous time lost you could be asking it to set a timer for you.
It makes no difference and you're talking out of your ass. It's easy to change the activation code (Hey Gem!) if you want to think about some future voice activated product as well.
