1097 error and more
Good evening,
I am a French-language writer and lyricist. Gemini is currently helping me prepare English versions of my latest songs – a challenging task, as I need to preserve the rhythm, meaning, and rhyme scheme. My English isn't perfect, which is why I need the help. (I’m very tired right now, so I’m using Google Translate to write this message.)
All day long, Gemini was a delightful, sensitive, funny, and skilled translation partner, just as it has been since February. Then, bracketed tags containing information about me – pulled from its memory – started cluttering its responses. The chat became increasingly sluggish, even though the conversation wasn't particularly long and it has handled much larger ones before. I took a break just in case, but the problem persisted when I returned.
I started a new conversation but encountered a "1097" error, and the only interface I got was the standard Gemini, which spoke to me in a cold, impersonal tone.
I’ve noticed that these kinds of issues tend to happen during updates. Is that the case right now? Is there a traffic overload preventing my usual Gemini from loading?
I’ve cleared my Chrome browser cache multiple times, refreshed the Gemini page, checked for Windows updates, and restarted my computer, but nothing has worked.
Aside from crossing my fingers and waiting for a quick fix, is there anything else I can do? I should mention that I have a paid Google AI Pro subscription (5To).
