    Google is spreading too thin, as gemini isn't really that intelligent.

    They are creating gemini SOTA (not really any more), flash versions, text-to-speech, video (omni), etc.

    I can see they want to create an ecosystem, but I see no focus in any one area.

      The gemma 4 models are pretty great

        not as good as other chinese openweight models.

        At best, good, but not great.

          They've also been out for awhile. And scale super well to tiny sizes
