Gemini 4 launch lacks product innovation, Ethan Mollick says
Mollick says Google has long been good at finding new uses for its models, like deep research and NotebookLM, but saw no similar product innovation at the Gemini 4 launch, which felt more like following trends.

A big Google strength in AI has always been finding interesting uses for the models they have. They pioneered deep research, podcasting-from-information and all of NotebookLM etc. With Gemini 4, haven’t seen any similar product innovation at launch, more following the trends.
