I'm not an accelerationist singularity neohuman. Oh well, I still get plenty done

My gemini subscription is all I need. It's like an interactive stack overflow that doesn't yell at you and answers your questions.

I was working on a problem and having trouble understanding an old node splitting paper, and Gemini pointed me to a better paper with a more efficient algorithm, then explained how it worked, then generated test code. It's fantastic. I'm not saying it's better than the other LLMs, but having a little oracle available online is a great boost to learning and debugging.

Different beasts on the API, the extra context left makes a huge difference. Unless there's something else out there I've missed, which at the speed things move these days it's always a possibility.
