So I've been trying to "trick" Google Ai Studio by shrinking my PDF files to the smallest fontsize possible to save up on the amount of pages they take up which equals less tokens. However, because these PDfs are often pretty dense word wise, it often causes the error of "Input token count exceeds the maximum number of tokens allowed for this model. Please adjust your prompt and try again." (even if the tokencount doesnt exceed that much) is there other alternatives that can reduce token usage while keeping everything I want?

Alright who the heck changed copy and pasting in Google AI Studio, I changed nothing settings wise and suddenly copying from google ai studio gets rid of all the formatting it added, its pretty damn annoying having to go back and do extra work to fix it up.

Also I swear gemini has gotten dumber, I pasted a link of a song's lyrics and it still insist on not reading the link whenever I ask it to and makes up its own song. Both 3.1 and 2.5 have the same problems

Addition: Dont even get me started on Gemini 3 Flash Review, its even worse. I swear this thing sees more then one link and forgets to read
