I started finally using gpt about 6mo ago a lot to do useful things, it finally came far enough along. One day I thought after one of Google's big hype sessions about Gemini I should check it out too.

So I was working with a customer and needed something done in powershell to extract some customer data, as I normally hate windoze and don't touch it as a linux person. I told gemini what I wanted and to make me a script. It started trying teach me how to program powershell.

After laughing to myself and trying nicely a few times just frigging do it and make me (sandwich) script, it literally said something akin to "I can't do that Dave". It simply would not make me a script, instead trying to force me to RTFM. If I wanted to do that, I would have taken a windoze powershell class.

I just kinda stared at it for a minute, thinking what the hell google was thinking lately. I was a google fan, I have google glasses (plural) to prove it. Then I went back to gpt and never looked at gemini again and laugh when I hear of it.

Sad how google has fallen.
