Why in the world of all bad naming would they choose the two letters that abbreviate one of their largest competitors product

And it's not even a CC-like, it's a claw-like, afaict?

By that measure, every email client is promoting Claude Code. ;)
ccimnuojf•8m ago
It's pretty obvious the name comes from the email cc: field

Non-tech people who this is targeted at don't know what Claude Code is.

Will be shuttered in 3... 2... 1...

Cause it's Google.

I don't use new Google services. They've shut down too many that I loved and used daily.

I'm doing something similar but not for the whole family, just for myself, both for home stuff and for work stuff (seperated), but I just give pi access to the tools and accounts I want it to use. I don't use google for anything other than watching YouTube so it would not work for me anyway. I have a knowledge base git repo which the agents use together to do things. The PDF filling thing is especially cool with a KB in the background because the Agent can fill in 99% of the things by itself. It also organizes my todo lists and my calendar.

What do you do for communication with the agent?

What does CC stand for in this context? Shouldn’t you define your acronyms near the top of the article? Feels pretty amateur coming from Google.
stingraycharles•13m ago
I think it’s a reference to “CC’ing” someone by email (they also use that in the examples).
charcircuit•11m ago
It's not an acronym. It's a name.
DonsDiscountGas•11m ago
It has its own Google account, so maybe CC like in email? Which is "carbon copy".
pyrophane•13m ago
Terribly confusing name and title.

Creative Commons. Closed Captions. Comedy Central. Cubic Centimeter.

I guess this is some sort of forced evolution of Carbon Copy but it seems weakly tied

It’s not like it’s a lot of work to fill out permission slips. Probably easier than scanning the document. Receiving permission slips is the only way I’m informed about school trips anyways. I’m not sure this is a valid use case. Maybe for people who want even less participation with their families.

The problem with anything AI google launches is that it's going to be fragmented across products with different teams building their own interpretations and it's just not going to work seamlessly. Most of their efforts now fail in one way or another and my guess is that it's just a symptom of how google builds things.
