What?? Am I using the same gemini as everyone else?

>OCR is phenomenal

I literally tried to OCR a TYPED document in Gemini today and it mangled it so bad I just transcribed it myself because it would take less time than futzing around with gemini.

> Gemini handles every single one of my uses cases much better and consistently gives better answers.

>coding

I asked it to update a script by removing some redundant logic yesterday. Instead of removing it it just put == all over the place essentially negating but leaving all the code and also removing the actual output.

>Stocks analysis

lol, now I know where my money comes from.



Was that with Gemini 3 Pro or a different Gemini model?


Yes.

Today I asked it to make a short bit of code to query some info from an API. I needed it to not use the specific function X that is normally used. I added to its instructions "Never use function X" then asked it in the chat to confirm its rules. It then generated code using function X and a word soup explaining how it did not uses function X. Then I copy pasted the line and asked why it used function X and it said more word soup explaining how the function was not there. So yea not so good.
