Regarding the campaign finance documents, it's not just a vision problem with handwritten filings. Even when I feed Gemini Pro a typed PDF with normal text (the kind you can search, select, and copy in any PDF reader) it just invents things to fill in the result. I asked it to summarize the largest donors of a local campaign given a 70-page PDF and it gave me a top-10 table that seemed plausible but all the names were pulled from somewhere else in Gemini's tiny brain. None of them appeared anywhere in the filing.
