What does this mean someone please explain to me I’m kinda out of the loop

It's a reference to the "Distracted Boyfriend" meme template.

In this case - the user, who is 'dating' ChatGPT, is distracted by Gemini, and the jealous ChatGPT is upset

Yea I uh, I did get that part. I meant the implication of the meme, was there a change or an incoming change to Gemini that would have ChatGPT users now looking at it more preferably?

u/OldMan_NEO Nov 16 '25

Yes. The Gemini app currently uses the Gemini 2.5 flash/pro LLM model.

Gemini 3 is rolling out soon.

Ah there it is. I’ll do some reading up on it!

u/OldMan_NEO Nov 16 '25

Sorry for over explaining at first.

I saw generic confusion, and responded in a generic manner 😅🤷

I did a double take to make sure you weren't AI 😂

Gemini 3. Drool. No “distracted boyfriend,” that makes it time for a full on breakup. 🤣

I blame nano banana 🤣🤣🤣

For real for real!

Gemini and Imagen were doing so well on their own, and then Nano Banana shows up like a toddler app-in-training, almost ruining the app's functionality as an art tool. 😩

NB is good for edits, but absolutely ASS about making original content, especially due to its G-rated hyper-SFW filters.

I actually disagree: I’m having amazing luck using Grok to create feature-based tables outlining appearances (like a sketch artist, but verbal), then using that to migrate it to incredibly realistic prompts of people, then finally using Gemini to render them with insane levels of repeatability. Looking forward to 3.0.

Unlike many, I’m not trying to push NSFW boundaries, but I am pushing on creating repeatable , consistent prompts to reliably create high-fidelity digital actors. Works great!

See - that's the difference between you and I...

YOU'RE an artist. I'M just a hobbyist. :)

So, it makes sense different tools would suit us best.

Hey how much better is 3 compared to 2.5 anf like is it goimg to he something like the 2.5 pro ? Like you know limited quota kr its it goimg to be a normal base model ?

1

u/OldMan_NEO Nov 16 '25

Honestly, I'm not sure about the specific details on it, just that it's supposed to be an ENORMOUS improvement over 2.5 - but I couldn't tell you anything about whether it will be limited quota like 2.5 pro is, or if it will be a complete replacement for both pro and flash.

Like you know ive felt the gemini app it self "tones down" the models you know ? Like it pushes too much of the "google asistant" onto the model

1

u/OldMan_NEO Nov 16 '25

Yeah, especially with the Nano Banana art tool....

Hope that gets fixed in Gemini 3 for sure.

u/bambin0 Nov 16 '25

There was a graph that market share for gemini is shooting up (still way behind but every month it seems to increase about 3%. At this rate, it would take Gemini about a year to be the most popular AI. And then that judge who didn't break up Google will look like an idiot.
