This would have been a massive issue if Antigravity/Gemini were any good.

I don't appreciate but kinda understand that Anthropic can act arrogant with Fable. Google (shockingly) is really in no position for this.

100% this.

I was a huge Gemini fan, and I think the model itself is still very good. But Antigravity is absolutely horrible. It routinely writes broken code and then ends up in a short term cycle of reverting and re-implementing.

It's so bad that I don't use it for writing code and certainly wouldn't even bother trying to get it to refactor anything. It's been relegated it to analysis and planning. It is excellent there.

I can't be the only one who find this a little inexplicable that a company with Google's resources is fumbling this so badly.

or that the company that invented transformers is fumbling this so badly

many of their best people left during the SaaS boom cycle in the 20'oughts, current leadership is abysmal

there is also that well known promotion incentive misalignment at big g

Gemini is great (and fast) at vision tasks. It's a huge benefit to add on to an existing pi/omp harness install just for that feature to use in conjunction with other (stronger) models.

Too bad this anti 3rd party usage stance basically makes that a huge risk for a lot of people, it was the only thing Gemini has been competitive in outside of API cost.
