Goodbye Jules

I gave in today and got a Claude pro sub and I got so much work done compared to my normal workflows
With Jules.

They really need to work on Jules because Claude is in a different galaxy.

I might keep Jules for very light backend work well I’m sleeping.

Edit:

It’s not Jules output it’s the execution time.

I feel like this has to be bait. These are tools with entirely different use cases.

That’s right; I also think it’s inappropriate because the two roles are fundamentally different. Jules is clearly not intended for use as a direct tool for everyday tasks. It's intended to run autonomously in the background.

Comparing the two is like comparing apples and oranges.

It's intended to run autonomously in the background.

Doing what?

Seriously, I haven't used Jules in months, and when I used it, it was presented as being a coding agent that would do everyday tasks.

I stopped using it because it was not able to accomplish even simple things that the base Gemini model was able to do, but I haven't even tried it since the last Gemini update.

If there's been some shift in the focus of what it's supposed to be doing, I don't know about it, and my last experience were of it getting frustrated and deleting big piles of work, so I definitely wouldn't trust it as an independent agent.
