This would be true if Gemini didn't already have some surface level access with Google maps. They just stopped short of supporting the feature I cared about

I would literally never let an AI plan my trip. I do have very specific interests though and it's nice to have an overview of suggestions of places to go.

Plus, it's great at researching the history of places you're visiting, so you can find cultural experiences a bit easier.

I don't travel often, but I do live in Europe where it's easy to visit a new city or country in the weekend. This makes this functionality a quite common use for me.

Since you're a googler, can you trigger some internal process to improve the connection between google services?

Gemini cannot create "my maps". I like creating a map of stuff for travel and now I ask it to create an importable file (which it doesn't always get right) but it should honestly do that itself.

And I don't mean that from within the Gemini app, I'd like a shareable list of places, which you can do via a very outdated maps UI

I mean this specifically for general tasks, like personal research. Small stuff. I was asking for espresso machine recommendations and it literally came up with a non-existent machine that supposedly met all my requirements. I've never seen that with ChatGPT, Claude or Kimi. It's quite surprising how it did that _after_ doing a Google search.

I'll use this opportunity while it's still early to share my experience with Argon.

I got it via the "Pro" plan, exclusively for personal task usage. So no agentic programming.

For starters, the limits are dreadfully low. Five messages on medium is already enough to trigger a 4 hour cooldown. Secondly, the best part is the integration with Google search and Maps. Makes it seamless for trip planning. Lastly it's the only "SOTA" model in a long time that has actively hallucinated details. I don't know if it's because the Gemini harness is not asking it to verify information, but I've had some real Deepseek V3-like lies in responses.

Either way, I find it difficult to get invested in Gemini because nobody will have access to Carbon for a few months anyways.

That is unfortunately a huge downside.

Huh. That would actually annoy me because speculaas and speculoos are two different things.

> Someone needs to step in before this gets wildly out of control. This sounds like a paid bot, lmao.

I wonder how much is actual improvements in the model and how much comes from better harnesses. I'd be willing to bet that the combination of better harnesses + the models being trained around agentic workflows (i.e the harnesses) has made it significantly better in many things, but it's hard to find other improvements imo.

I think that's going to be exactly the same with AI.

Comments lie. What's worse, AI trusts the comments and apparent logic (inferred from identifiers and whatnot) more than the actual logic. You can quickly get into a mess of stale comments. What's worse, the LLM can sometimes just spit out garbage that poisons the context of the next agent. I disallow comments from my LLM for that last reason.

Kimi K3 is slightly better at this. I'm using it via oh-my-pi. Can definitely sound like it's trying to be clever, but I found it less than Claude.

"Angry" version is clearly 1-to-1 ai output. I think I prefer dontbeameatproxy

> Build a one-page site for a neighbourhood coffee shop: opening hours, the address, a short menu and a photo. Nothing on it changes unless I edit it myself.

If that's the entire prompt, it's quite depressing how much alike these all look. I appreciate some of the details from the Opus 5 version, but I can't help but strongly feel the AI vibes emanating from that design.

Working on a language related app makes me realize that all these supposed language models don't have many good language benchmarks

Seems like pro 0813 is exclusively served by Deepseek themselves at the moment so I wouldn't say that's the case?
