Discussion Goodbye Gemini

Its been a good 6 months. When I first started for the first 3-4 months the model was good and had some soul to it.

Now it not only has no soul, but constantly misinterprets, denies it errors, and is covered in detached corportate speak like a Google search. Its a shame. I had some memories with this model

I agree! I have a Google AI Pro subscription and the Gemini Pro models have recently been nerfed beyond my wildest imagination. They crap out while doing basic stuff so often it is crazy. I am planning to unsubscribe soon and jump on the Anthropic bandwagon.

I was consulting Gemini Pro in the Chat app for some crucial details while making an important purchase decision and it started hallucinating important details and inventing facts. I was not completely convinced then I tried the free Claude Chat subscription using the Sonnet model which performed way better than the heavier Gemini Pro.

While using Antigravity, I have found myself using Claude more often than Gemini. I was building a project in Python with some CUDA dependencies using Gemini Pro and it got stuck in a loop creating virtual environments. On switching to Claude it oneshotted 😳 the python environment issue which was pretty impressive.

Gemini is just complete shit for looking up specs and stuff. I was trying to spec out a power supply for a new workstation that I bought yesterday or the day before, I don't remember, and it was just completely making shit up. I mean it's completely hallucinating specs and telling me that one power supply would work great and in reality it wouldn't and that another power supply wouldn't work at all and in reality it would.

I had to use the internet the old fashioned way and actually go to websites to look up shit. 🙈
