Yeah, it is often pointed out as a brilliance in game analysis if a GM makes a move that an engine says is bad and turns out to be good. However, it only happens in very specific positions.
Does that happen because the player understands some tendency of their opponent that will cause them to not play optimally? Or is it genuinely some flaw in the machine’s analysis?
Out of curiosity, I gave it the latest project euler problem published on 11/16/2025, very likely out of the training data Gemini thought for 5m10s before giving me a python snippet that produced the correct answer. The leaderboard says that the 3 fastest human to solve this problem took 14min, 20min and 1h14min respectively Even thought I expect this sort of problem to very much be in the distribution of what the mo…

And of course they hiked the API prices Standard Context(≤ 200K tokens) Input $2.00 vs $1.25 (Gemini 3 pro input is 60% more expensive vs 2.5) Output $12.00 vs $10.00 (Gemini 3 pro output is 20% more expensive vs 2.5) Long Context(> 200K tokens) Input $4.00 vs $2.50 (same +60%) Output $18.00 vs $15.00 (same +20%)
Is it the first time long context has separate pricing? I hadn’t encountered that yet
Do regular users know how to disable AI Overviews, if they don't love them?
Has anyone who is a regular Opus / GPT5-Codex-High / GPT5 Pro user given this model a workout? Each Google release is accompanied by a lot of devrel marketing that sounds impressive but whenever I put the hours into eval myself it comes up lacking. Would love to hear that it replaces another frontier model for someone who is not already bought into the Gemini ecosystem.
Code quality was fine for my very limited tests but I was disappointed with instruction following.
I tried few tricks but I wasn't able to convince it to first present plan before starting implementation.
I have instructions describing that it should first do exploration (where it tried to discover what I want) then plan implementation and then code, but it always jumps directly to code.
this is bug issue for me especially because gemini-cli lacks plan mode like Claude code.
for codex those instructions make plan mode redundant.
Static Pelican is boring. First attempt: Generate SVG animation of following: 1 - There is High fantasy mage tower with a top window a dome 2 - Green goblin come in front of tower with a torch 3 - Grumpy old mage with beard appear in a tower window in high purple hat 4 - Mage sends fireball that burns goblin and all screen is covered in fire. Camera view must be from behind of goblin back so we basically look at towe…
After few more attempts longer animation with a story from my gamedev inspired mind: https://codepen.io/Runway/pen/zxqzPyQ PS: but yeah thats attempt #20 or something.
edit: flashing lights at the end seem to be mostly becauseo f darkreader extension

The only intellectual property here would be trademark. No copyright, no patent, no trade secret. Unless someone wants to market the test results as a genuine Pac-Man-branded product, or otherwise dilute that brand, there's nothing should-y about it.
It's not an ethics thing. It's a guardrails thing.
I've been so happy to see Google wake up. Many can point to a long history of killed products and soured opinions but you can't deny theyve been the great balancing force (often for good) in the industry. - Gmail vs Outlook - Drive vs Word - Android vs iOS - Worklife balance and high pay vs the low salary grind of before. Theyve done heaps for the industry. Im glad to see signs of life. Particularly in their P/E whic…
Ironically, OpenAI was conceived as a way to balance Google's dominance in AI.
I still need a google account to use it and it always asks me for a phone verification, which I don't want to give to google. That prevents me from using Gemini. I would even pay for it.
> I would even pay for it. Is it just me or is it generally the case that to pay for anything on the internet you have to enter credit card information including a phone number.
