Google is turning Android into a 'sloperating' system. Your thoughts?

Google has released Android 17, positioning it as a transition from a traditional operating system to an "intelligence system" that integrates AI capabilities directly into the platform. The update introduces AppFunctions, allowing developers to expose their apps' capabilities as tools that AI agents and assistants like Google Gemini can discover and execute to perform tasks on behalf of users. Android 17 also mandates large-screen resizability and emphasizes adaptive design across multiple device types, while delivering improvements in privacy, security, and performance.
