Usually I’d agree, but the article and Google specifically got in front of this - they only counted people who opened the Gemini app, used the Gemini web interface, or Gemini live. They didn’t count people who simply used a google product that has Gemini in it.

Genuinely impressive numbers taking that into account. Had no idea it was popular.

Edit: has Gemini replaced the Google assistant shortcuts on all Android phones? If so, this is less impressive.
