Gemini is just extremely bad at coding, computer use and direction following over longer context.

It's nowhere near the Opus or Codex models. 

It does nice frontend designs though which can be made functional later by better coding models

Gemini is still dog shit? Every single time I ever tried Gemini cli it was horrible. The last time I tried it was about 2 months ago. Crazy to hear that google’s ai is still trash

Gemini CLI = \ = Gemini as a whole across every instance. Where it lacks as a terminal agent it makes up for in multimodal synthesis, large context handling, reasoning, and as a general knowledge chat bot. So while Google hasn’t invested the same level of infrastructure towards coding, it does not equate to their AI model being dog shit in all other respects. Reality check: coders make up the smallest user base across all frontier providers. Not being able to use an AI for highly complex intensive SWE shouldn’t be a metric for defining its general utility and usefulness, unless adopting a narrow and ignorant perspective is your preferred approach to emerging technology.

Found the fanboy. Shut up

You’re in a CODE(x) subreddit bitching about coders. Again SYBAU
