ai studio, you get a bunch of usage free if you want more you buy credits (google one subscriptions also give you some additional usage)
I see -- so this is the "paid" AI studio plan? Does that have any relation to the Gemini plan thing: https://one.google.com/explore-plan/gemini-advanced?utm_sour... ?

Re: Gemini 3
#182What is Gemini 3 under the hood? Is it still just a basic LLM based on transformers? Or are there all kinds of other ML technologies bolted on now? I feel like I've lost the plot.

It is so impressive that Anthropic has been able to maintain this pricing still.
Because every time I try to move away I realize there’s nothing equivalent to move to.
Re: Gemini 3
#184API pricing is up to $2/M for input and $12/M for output For comparison: Gemini 2.5 Pro was $1.25/M for input and $10/M for output Gemini 1.5 Pro was $1.25/M for input and $5/M for output
With this kind of pricing I wonder if it'll be available in Gemini CLI for free or if it'll stay at 2.5.
Re: Gemini 3
#185I'm sure this is a very impressive model, but gemini-3-pro-preview is failing spectacularly at my fairly basic python benchmark. In fact, gemini-2.5-pro gets a lot closer (but is still wrong). For reference: gpt-5.1-thinking passes, gpt-5.1-instant fails, gpt-5-thinking fails, gpt-5-instant fails, sonnet-4.5 passes, opus-4.1 passes (lesser claude models fail). This is a reminder that benchmarks are meaningless – you…

#186Feels like the same consolidation cycle we saw with mobile apps and browsers are playing out here. The winners aren’t necessarily those with the best models, but those who already control the surface where people live their digital lives. Google injects AI Overviews directly into search, X pushes Grok into the feed, Apple wraps "intelligence" into Maps and on-device workflows, and Microsoft is quietly doing the same…

Thus far, this is one of the best objective evaluations of real world software engineering...
Idk, Sonnet 4.5 score better than Sonnet 4.0 on that benchmark, but is markedly worse in my usage. The utility of the benchmark is fading as it is gamed.
