If, theoretically, Gemini is used for call center use (legal or otherwise) you can be sure to expect some interesting outcomes. Personal / corporate data slung through the Gemini system, pulled into the dataset forever, will be a fun ride for the impacted.

On top of this proposition 103 passed in 1988 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ) which made the California government the final arbiter regarding insurance rates. State Farm is walking away from all the potential income in California because it is not worth it. The connection to "Climate change" is spurious at best. " California voters passed Proposition 103 on November 8, 1988. It in effect made insurance companies require "prior approval" from the California Department of Insurance before implementing property and casualty insurance rates. It passed with 51% of the vote.[1] The measure expanded the Department's responsibility for enforcement to include: property insurance, automobile insurance, life insurance and other types of casualty coverage. Proposition 103 made the California Insurance Commissioner an elected position (previously being a governor-appointed position).[2] The ballot measure required insurers "roll back" their rates 20 percent. Proposition 103 devised a process enabling consumer participation in the setting of insurance rates, and allowed consumer "intervenors" witness fees and expenses in some cases.[3] "

Google went into Louisville, KY and made huge promises. Sent out T-shirts for free (I still have mine) and dug big ugly trenches in the road because they couldn't figure out how to lawyer up against the AT&T. They dropped out and left everybody hanging within a couple of years of the project start. Only a fool trusts google's long term plan because they don't have one.
