I think this is the second time in a week (the first being the "Googlebook") that Google's promotional announcement video showcasing UI is so full of special effects, dramatic pan/zooms, and woosh sounds, that I have no idea how the final-end product actually looks or works.

It looks like an output of one of those AI video editors that some (often vibecoded) startups use for their product launch videos. Just drop some assets in, and it spams witty taglines with dramatic transition effects.

I watched this video too, and like the google book one, I have no idea who this product is for

in both cases, the reality is that nothing has changed all that much.

the googlebook is a laptop. the search box doesn't really work differently to how it did yesterday. (how it worked ten years ago, yes it's very different. but ai mode is already here). neither of these things are a big deal. the promo videos are for the sake of making promo videos.

I had to stop it because it was making me dizzy trying to focus on what was shown

Agree. Felt the same way about the first video and wanted to leave a comment but wasn't sure if it's just a me problem.
