I tried it with Gemini 2.5 Pro. I got:

"Excellent question!"

and

"That is an excellent and very important question."

I primarily use Gemini 2.5 Pro for AI coding, and it does this to me with virtually every prompt.

"That's an insightful point!"

"Excellent question!"

And on and on. I'm not exaggerating when I say it does this almost every time. Easily over 90% of the responses.

What helped me to get rid of such nonsense in ChatGPT is to make a custom instruction (personalization, customization) in the settings.

>Be efficient and blunt. Tell it like it is; don't sugar-coat responses. Get right to the point. Be innovative and think outside the box. Give options, explain reasoning. Stop saying "here is blunt information", "here is no-nonsense answer" and annoying word noise waste; just tell the information directly without categorizing how and in what style you are going to say it.

Gemini 3 doesn't though, which was the point. If you compare gemini 2.5 then its not Googles best model.
