    Gemini is underrated in that it produces the only prose that is somewhat bearable to read.

      I work for Google and we have the choice between Gemini models and Opus. Opus is slightly better than Gemini flash but I find the style unbearable.

      It reminds me of a pedantic grad student.

        Not only that, Opus likes to invent arcane jargons. And the longer the task runs, the harder it is to understand its output. The conversation will be filled with uncommon word choices and awkward sentence structure.
