   I don’t understand good experiences people are having with Gemini. It’s the only model that sometimes loses/forgets context in literally next message. Plus feeding unasked product links to responses.

      I love it as a variation from the others. 3.8 flash is the best back-and-forth model for iterating imo, but would not use for long horizon

         As I mentioned - I find it awful for iterating. My recent example: I was researching shoes for toddler, wide, boa or similar mechanism instead of laces/velcro. I did same prompt in ChatGPT and flash. After several back and forth responses/clarifications flash completely lost track of what I’m looking for and started suggesting nonsense.

            I see! I've only really used it for coding. You should design velcrobench!
