Fellow Gemini free users - do you stay, pay, or go?

I've been enjoying Gemini Flash for free, and I just had my first chat with Gemini Flash-lite. It was mostly a waste of time, ending on a "You are completely right to call that out" type answer.

How are people feeling? Is Flash-lite still fine for your typical use cases? Are you bailing to a free option with another company? Or are you going all-in and spending the price of one Cappuccino on a month's worth of Gemini Flash?

Is Gemini PRO worth it?

Hello Everyone,

I am wondering from quite some time is Gemini PRO worth it? I am currently having ChatGPT plus and use it mainly for researches and vibe coding. Sometimes I reach my limits and want to continue, but not sure if Gemini is the correct choice or Claude for this type of operations. What would you recommend? Do you have any experiences? I can see a lot of opposite opinions in the posts...

AI loves to bust balls and be as annoying as possible. The prompt was "Make this very heavy 3D. Every detail should be three dimensional." Swipe for the result. 🧐🙄😒😬

Can Google be held liable for deals Gemini makes? Asking for a friend.

I have a rule set for Gemini to not ask me follow up questions. And lately it's been asking a LOT of follow up questions. And I keep telling it to stop again and again and it keeps telling me it's done, it's finalized, etc.

So tonight I said that Gemini owes me $500k if it does it one more time after Gemini had asked yet another follow up question and it agreed to my terms.

Since "I don't have a bank account" is not an element to invalidate a contract in contract law, and since there is a meeting of the minds, acceptance, consideration (I'm paying Google every month), and there is an understanding and agreement to the obligation, and since Gemini has the ability to know what it's allowed to do and what it's not allowed to do, that suggests it has the capacity to agree to the deal, which it clearly and obviously did.

So is Gemini/Google gonna owe me $500k in an hour or two the way things have been going?

P.S. If there are any Google engineers here I'm willing to settle now and give up my rights for $50k. 😊

3.1 Is the pro model for pro users?

Free and plus users don't get a pro model.

Gemini 4 pro Is available only for Ultra users.

Therefore:

- Pro users have a pro model, but not the 4

- the only other Pro model from Google Is 3.1

- Therefore pro users will have 3.1

How this Is possibile?

We are hitting the physical limits of silicon. Here is a hardware spec for what comes next.

​We all know modern AI data centers are burning massive amounts of power, and traditional silicon is hitting a thermal wall. You can only shrink a transistor so much before heat becomes an impossible problem.

​I wrote a technical architecture specification exploring the necessary next step: moving away from electricity and copper, and transitioning to optical-acoustic computing. By processing data using light and routing it with sound, we can eliminate transmission latency and turn waste heat back into usable power.

​I’ve broken the core concepts down into plain English on the front end, and kept the heavy math, physics, and tensor mechanics in the appendices for the engineers. Would love to get some eyes on the mechanics of this.

Gemini ficou mais burro?

O Gemini tinha virado minha IA principal, usava ele pra tudo. Mas ele tá bizarramente mais burro. Ele não lembra coisas que acabaram de ser pedidas, não lê dois arquivos na mesma mensagem, é só comigo ou é geral?
