Am I the only one that can’t find Gemini useful except if you want something cheap? I don’t get what was the whole code red about or all that PR. To me I see no reason to use Gemini instead of of GPT and Anthropic combo. I should add that I’ve tried it as chat bot, coding through copilot and also as part of a multi model prompt generation.

Gemini was always the worst by a big margin. I see some people saying it is smarter but it doesn’t seem smart at all.

You are not the only one, it's to the point where I think that these benchmark results must be faked somehow because it doesn't match my reality at all.

I find the quality is not consistent at all and of all the LLMs I use Gemini is the one most likely to just verge off and ignore my instructions.

  • Same, as far as I am concerned, Gemini is optimized for benchmarks.

    I mean last week it insisted suddenly on two consecutive prompts that my code was in python. It was in rust.

maybe it depends on the usage, but in my experience most of the times the Gemini produces much better results for coding, especially for optimization parts. The results that were produced by Claude wasn't even near that of Gemini. But again, depends on the task I think.
