> The public version of Gemini is ridiculous. At least half their search "answers" are just wrong.

That's not Gemini, that's AI Mode (in Search), they're different products built by fairly different part of Google (actually one is built by Deepmind).

(I don't think it's much comparable to https://gemini.google.com/app at least in the past you'd get very different results)

And it's extremely poor marketing by Google to do this - the general perception people have is that Google AI is dumb due to this.
