I don't know why they would because what this means is if your favorite site is down, this person is now able to bring it back up just that much quicker.

Yeah, it's funny.

So internally, Google, we have a thing like incident reporting, which is because, of course, we have a huge number of really, really popular products, like billion user products.

Right.

And so we have a very robust incident reporting system out there.

And we have Gemini CLI hooked into like all of it.

And this is about saying, OK, when there's an error, why, what and who should be contacted?

Yeah.

Right.

And it's able to pull in all this information to make that possible.

I think it's definitely a bread and butter, like thing that we're all, bread and butter doesn't mean downplaying it too much.

It is an important and vital thing that every product has to do.

Yeah.

And so for Gemini CLI, I actually went through several iterations early on when I was building it of how.

How do you manage that much context and what works most effectively?

So in software development, there's a thing called embeddings.

And there's an embedding-based approach, which is you take all the content that you care about and you index it effectively.

You make it so that you can quickly look stuff up.

And at the time, we had an approach where every time a user would ask a question, we'd try to say, okay, well, in our big index, what information should be pulled in, right?

And we'd try to pull it in.
