Have you had a chance to compare with Gemini 3?

I switch routinely between Gemini 3 (my main), Claude, GPT, and sometimes Grok. If you came up with 100 random tasks, they would all come out about equal. The issue is some are better at logical issues, some are better at creative writing, etc. If it's something creative I usually drop it in all 4 and combine the best bits of each.

(I also use Deep Think on Gemini too, and to me, on programming tasks, it's not really worth the money)

  • This is the only accurate take. Any people who claim that one of the big 3 is all around "bad" or "low quality" compared to the other two, can be ignored. They're close enough in overall "strength" yet different enough in strengths/weakness that it's very much task/domain-specific.

Not extensively. The few interactions I've tried on it have been disappointing though. The Voice input is really bad, like significantly worse than any other major AI in the market. And I assumed search would be its strong suit and ran a search-and-compile type prompt (that I usually run on ChatGPT) on Gemini, and it was underwhelming at it. Not as bad as Grok (which was pretty much unusable for this), but noticeably worse than ChatGPT. Maybe Gemini has other strengths that I haven't come across yet, but on that one at least, it was
