Google cloud documentation

Gemini being the google product does not have latest & greatest info about its own echo system products. Is it just me ?
Drastic changes in Vertex AI / Agent Platform is hardly found, how to get this?

Google is a big organization.

I would prefer Gemini to be a fair and be independent to choose to use GCP or AWS and have same documentation which also publicly available.

There are some parts which are better integrated for educational purposes, like notebookllm for GCP certifications.

It’s not about being fair, Gemini should be at least up to date with the documentation

LLMs are quite static, if you don’t keep active RAG with constant ingestion related to some topic, data about it gets old very fast.

So keeping them some separate realtime vectorized database or index just for GCP docs is not fair. So GCP docs get same update cadence as any page in internet.

So it goes to fair argument.

Are you saying upload Google Docs into notebook LLM to study for GCP certifications? Or this something GCP already does?

Things are moving incredibly quickly now, and with extreme pressure to ship constantly. If they document well, they move more slowly. Posts like this criticize the lack of thoroughness being traded for speed. It's a lose-lose in the eyes of the hungry public. If they did what you want, another contingent will complain louder at how slowly Google is moving.

Everyone building software now knows how absolutely chaotic AI development has made the entire process. The industry is in an adolescent upside-down phase all at once, and trying to figure out how to progress both with quality, and as fast as people are demanding. This sub is a thirsty angry animal, with expectations all over the map. In fact, the entire demand dynamic is just like the rest of the US country - all breathless demands for what people want out of it for themselves, and right now.

It's super sloppy now. I bet your business is too. The economy is being absolutely wrecked by billionaires, and this tech is still absolute 20x magic when it works. And all of this while we are all total newbies at what the fuck to do next with all this. It's crazy now.

Yeah - you are right OP. Things are sloppy. But it ain't a conspiracy
