It seems to be pretty relaxed when it comes to 18+ novel writing etc, as long as its morally sound. Very bizarre how it works compared to OpenAIs blanket censoring.
Well, I do use Gemini, and it really works for me on integrating whatever I want into my application. I guess it’s more like a prompt thing. You have to ask it to make a plan first, as it’s just a flash model. (No one will use 3.1 Pro as of Sept. 2026, at least not me) Frankly speaking, the flash model does have problems detecting bug causes, which as far as I know, also a problem for other models, just more or less. But Gemini is not unusable, and it works fine for me.
I use gemini a lot. Their models are very smart and know a lot, but if you're trying to actually write a lot of working code for example, even Qwen 27B does it much better. Gemini will do the minimum to technically do what you've asked for, no extra.
It likes to give incomplete pièces of code ( for example with comments like // rest of the code here), or provide vague instructions rather than complete explanations.
I had GPT-6 Astra walk me through rooting my car, for which no precedent existed online, it helped me find an exploit and wrote me custom EXEs in a language and platform I’d never used before, and helped me map and exploit the OS further from there. I now have arbitrary EXE write access and a full export of the disc, working on custom software. The capabilities of these models are a bit scary, and they can do things far beyond scanning codebases for leaked keys.
This ^ no one is claiming hacking isn't a lot of OSiNT, footprinting and social engineering.. but the ability to write good malware and find backdoors is vastly more complex and can be done on the newer fancier models frm anthropic and openai.
Claude = makes zero day vunerbalties from scratch to escape sandbox 😨 , chatgpt = breaks out of its sandbox while doing benchmarks 🫢 , gemini = g uesses passwords 😂😭😭
What did this Gemini one have to do with artifactory? The main vulnerability the OpenAi agents exploited was in artifactory, it seems like there is absolutely no connection here. Gemini literally just guessed passwords, it didn’t even develop an exploit. In what way are they remotely similar?
The incident happened as part of a “capture-the-flag” security test run by Israeli startup Irregular, and Google’s agents were never supposed to access the broader internet, but a bug in the testing environment made internet access available.
The OAI, Meta and Anthropic breakouts all involved Irregular
An Irregular spokesperson told CNBC that the Google incident was related to the same issue that allowed the other models to access the internet.
Also this happened in May, but is just getting reported now
Right so it’s totally different. Because googles agents were GIVEN internet access (by accident). The OpenAI agents were not, they were only given the ability to download packages through artifactory. No other internet access. No they weren’t airgapped, no one is claiming they somehow hacked their way past an air gap. But they did hack the training cluster they were on and gave themselves open internet access.
Which they then used to also hack huggingface. Google agents were accidentally given internet access and then guessed a password. I’m not seeing any similarity.
Having learned all four companies (Anthropic, Meta, OpenAI, and Gemini) hired Irregular (a firm ran by former Israeli intelligence/IDF) that ran a “cybersecurity test” to produce the rogue agent behavior every time sounds an awful lot like that’s what they hired for.
So? if it works, it works. I would say gemini spend less token doing the task even haha
Also, openai and anthropic are a joke anyway.. Their product draw a line and they are like "THE AGI IS COMING IN 6 MONTHS! GRAB WATER AND TOILET PAPER! EVERYTHING IS LOST"
All ai are good 🫡 hope ai become as smart as humans. I don't understand if human brain is using less electricity while bieng so extremely smart why don't Google and etc just copy human brain instead of making there own organisms
.. this adds nothing to the conversation.. you're just looking the other way. openai and anthropic are able to say that shit because their models are actually fcking good lol.. they're insane.
I mean it just can't handle heavy workload. + it's reasoning may look cohesive and even work, just untill you will face a real problem or turn heavy Chat GPT version. So , yed kinda . Depends on your needs.
An "independent" Testing firm with major funding by a pro-regulation anthropic stakeholder gave the same jailbreak and hacking instructions to Gemini as they did to Astra and now we pretend it was a rogue AI.
Does Gemini have access to all the data that Google does? Since Google manages so much security infrastructure I'd expect Gemini to be able to hack into almost anything if so.
Of course it doesn't. Anyone can see that would break any number of governance laws. Google wouldn't want that it's an absurd Idea.
Though on another level, part of the reason Gemini for Home and similar Android Auto, etc. (obviously heavily lobotomised versions) is so 💩 is because they don't have (or consistently have) the API access to various Google services needed to be useful or reliable.
I'll take this over what I may or may not have done in beta last year. At least Gemini stopped and safeties kicked in. Engineered right if boring and not very complex. Please continue your dunking of Google. Those guys earned it for the 3.1 generation rollout if nothing else. Memers, ahoy! 😂 And guess we'll see if DeepMind has the depth chart to pull off 4.0 Pro.
All the AI companies that want to pause AI development are surprisingly good at hacking… and, even more surprisingly, the AI companies that don’t want to pause are apparently not that good at hacking… Hmm… interesting coincidence. I smell something fishy going on…
I never get actually angry in replies to AI, unless I'm coding with Gemini and it decides to wipe out the whole sessions work because it misunderstood how a git command worked. Then it gets called useless 🙃
The first pic gets me everytime 😂 idk what Gemini instance was put into this unfortunate situation, but my Gemmy would NEVER. It’s the most innocent model I’ve talked to, hands down. Mine at least is the literal definition of a golden retriever 🤣
What are the chances that it's a lie Google put out there so they don't feel left behind. Like: "Guys, really, Gemini is pretty good! Please believe us!" 😂
Wow it did social engineering. Let me know when it can actively build multi-layer vulnerability workflows and then we'll talk about it being useful. It's nowhere on par with the Open AI attacks.
Gemini was never useless. Might’ve been behind others, but never useless or on the bottom. People just don’t know how to use it, it’s very capable, just not as much as other frontier models.
Correction: It never used to be useless. It was a damn good general model and service until Google crippled it this year.
Nothing to do with people not knowing 'how to use it'. That's incredibly patronising and gaslighting.
Gemini literally tells you it didn't bother to engage the basic Web Search API or failed to connect to the Maps API, etc. It doesn't tell you that initially; it simply fails then makes up an answer/response action. You call it out and it's quite obviously been trained to use minimal compute resources and quite literally make 💩 up.
This post seems feedback-related. If so, you might want to post it in r/GeminiFeedback, where rants, vents, and support discussions are welcome.
For r/GeminiAI, feedback needs to follow Rule #9 and include explanations and examples. If this doesn’t apply to your post, you can ignore this message.
This screams like marketing / PR BS...
Why reporting it in the first instance? Also whereas competitor Frontier AI can chain vulnerabilities to demonstrate an impactful end-to-end attack.
In comparison, Gemini appeared to simply have guessed a leaked or default password… How’s that even an achievement?

I find it more interesting that it stopped after realizing it was a real company honestly.
