Google has officially announced a new Smart Display platform that is powered by Google Assistant. Lenovo and others have already jumped on the bandwagon.

CES 2018, so far, has been centric around two things; Alexa and Google Assistant. Everybody and their mother is announcing support for Alexa or Google Assistant with their devices, and frankly, it’s a bit unnerving. Yeah, I’m as excited about smart appliances as the next person, but the ability to talk to your toaster somehow just doesn’t feel right. Are we entering a new age of technology where one can control household appliances just by talking to them or a 1984-esque dystopia where your microwave oven is capable of reporting your thought crimes to Big Brother?
