Google wants to replace most of its features with gemini powered tools. This is just the beginning. They own youtube and of course they're starting to train their models on that too, they have a deal with reddit so they're also turning all known internet forums into a huge database.

They've been pushing the auto dubbing feature super hard lately. Which isn't exactly the same thing but a bet they are lumping it in with other AI stuff.

It's so weird because Gemini is one of the dumbest of these bots out there.

Because it's training on reddit users.

Are you saying that reddit users are the dumbest users out there?

They’re all very “dumb” in soooo many ways

Gemini will suck I believe when used via certain methods.* Going direct to their most expensive model via API produces competitive results,

but this was NOT the case in 2024.

*Surprising they’re OK with brand/product dilution but I guess the alternative is losing even more money as they burn more energy and tax more servers

Weirdly its good in image/video analysis in my testing???
but it doesnt filter properly and easy to bypass when using the API

They already wrote they trained it on YouTube!

It was six months ago but not anymore

Once the feedback loop really kicks off then we'll see it turn to shit faster than all the rest.
