>It basically gives you patch-files instead of printing out the whole code

I've noticed on the Aider leaderboard that Google Gemini Pro has an "Edit Format" listed as "diff-fenced" and things like ChatGPT have "architect" edit format where Aider asks separate "architect" and "code" models. Seems like Gemini Pro prefers the diff format.

I met a Googler when I was in Dubai for an event and he shared that he and others had access to LLMs internally for many years before it was made popular by OpenAI.

I know Google has an internal AI everything policy, maybe they internally have awesome tools to rearchitect everything based on diffs and in the typical google way they adapted it to their own internal tools. You know, Google.. like they don't give a damn about the user, the product design or actually anything other than profit/roi.

So many great discontinued products.. I think they killed RSS.

The diff-fenced is iirc specific to Gemini models, they really don’t like the file path outside of the fence. The architect mode still uses one of the other edit format, the prompt just ends up a little different.

    Maybe they optimized for one of their TREEE SOLUTIONS:

    - https://Jules.google

    - NotebookLm

    - GoogleCollab

    How can a company have 3 contenders to Windsurf and Cursor, which are VSCode forks with a little sugarcoating and not make any impact?? The CPO should be fired.

    I think also after seeing Google Gemini's Video that their entire department is now fully Indian, including the CEO. If that isn't racially biased, then idk. See yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GO7bPb5cTA&t=2270s
