I just gave it a short description of a small game I had an idea for. It was 7 sentences. It pretty much nailed a working prototype, using React, clean css, Typescript and state management. It event implemented a Gemini query using the API for strategic analysis given a game state. I'm more than impressed, I'm terrified. Seriously thinking of a career change.

It’s a common pattern for upstarts to embrace openness as a way to differentiate and gain a foothold then become progressively less open once they get bigger. Android is a great example.
Last I checked, Android is still open source (as AOSP) and people can do whatever-the-f-they-want with the source code. Are we defining open differently?
It's like saying Nvidia's drivers are "open source" as there is a repository there but has only binaries in the folders.

Basically these tools can you you to a 100k LOC project without much effort, but it's not going to be a serious product. A serious product requires understanding still.
This is wild. I gave it some legacy XML describing a formula-driven calculator app, and it produced a working web app in under a minute: https://aistudio.google.com/app/prompts?state=%7B%22ids%22:%... I spent years building a compiler that takes our custom XML format and generates an app for Android or Java Swing. Gemini pulled off the same feat in under a minute, with no explanation of the format. The XML is fairly…
This is exactly the kind of task that LLMs are good at. They are good at transforming one format to another. They are good at boilerplate. They are bad at deciding requirements by themselves. They are bad at original research, for example developing a new algorithm.
You just described 90% of coding
Seems to be the first model that one-shots my secret benchmark about nested SQLite and it did it in 30s,

I don't know either tbh. I wouldn't be surprised it the answer is no (and it will come later or something like that) I also tried to use Gemini 3 in my Gemini CLI and it's not available yet (it's available to all Ultra, but not all Pro subscribers), I needed to sign up to a waitlist All in all, Google is terrible at launching things like that in a concise and understandable way
Back in the early 00s having a 'waitlist' for gmail with invites was an exciting buzz-making marketing technique and justifiable technically. This is just irritating. I am not going to give them money until I know I can try their latest thing and they've made it hard for me to even know how I can do that.
Well, I tried a variation of a prompt I was messing with in Flash 2.5 the other day in a thread about AI-coded analog clock faces. Gemini Pro 3 Preview gave me a result far beyond what I saw with Flash 2.5, and got it right in a single shot.[0] I can't say I'm not impressed, even though it's a pretty constrained example. > Please generate an analog clock widget, synchronized to actual system time, with hands that upd…
"Allow access to Google Drive to load this Prompt." .... why? For what possible reason? No, I'm not going to give access to my privately stored file share in order to view a prompt someone has shared. Come on, Google.

I thought this was a joke at first. It actually needs drive access to run someone else's prompt. Wild.
Imagine the metrics though. "this quarter we've had a 12% increase on people using AI solutions in their google drive".
