Why not use Gemini Pro considering he WORKS AT GOOGLE literally on Google AI Studio Am I tripping

Muting this due to nutters in the replies and cancelling my @GeminiApp sub as it’s clearly not even good enough for Google staff to use yeah I’m not paying for something they won’t even use themselves World class DevRel here fellas

@edandersen You can love the AI space and respect the competition while still being fully focused on building the best answer. It’s a long game.

@edandersen Because Gemini is dead bro. 3.5 Pro is dead on arrival

@edandersen (i no longer speak for google but even if i did) real talk, fable is the most powerful model out there right now and he is not gonna share an output from 3.5 pro or any other prerelease model lest he incur the wrath of logan from high atop the thing

@edandersen Also funny that he port it to iOS and not Android.

@edandersen I get the point you're making, but I think I'd be really sad if my social media identity was so thoroughly tied to where I worked that I couldn't enjoy doing something like this :/ I know he's even got an AI Studio logo on his username, but still!

@edandersen Google employees themselves are not using Gemini in 90% of teams (they use claude code)

@edandersen You know why

@edandersen Ammaar is a builder, that’s means (like the rest of our team) he tries all the models constantly. geeking over porting a game he grew up playing is not a bad thing, it’s a cool example of what’s possible at the frontier and sets a good benchmark for us on new versions of Gemini

@edandersen FWIW I use Fable, and Gemini, and GPT. It kind of goes with the territory.

@edandersen Good question... why? 🤔

@edandersen Anyone using it for a moment knows why not to use it right now. :)

@edandersen i would not be impressed with this behavior if i were google

@edandersen Google doesn't have even an internal model as good as Opus, let alone Fable.

@edandersen Nigga you know why. Don't play dumb. I know for a fact that everyone working on Gemini at Google uses Claude. They are given a certain amount of credits per 4 hour period and once they are used up they have to put a timer up so they can use Claude again. It's sad and hilarious.

@edandersen because it can't do that lmao

@edandersen gemini is shit and useless no one uses it, even the ones working at google dont

@edandersen Gemini isn't trending on the algorithm dude

@edandersen The simple answer. Gemini is not good.

@edandersen because Gemini sucks, hope that helps

@edandersen I dont think anyone, even at Google, are comparing Gemini 3.1 Pro to Fable 5. Different model tiers and different model generations. Google currently has no model that rivals Fable 5, and they are not pretending they do either.

@edandersen because gemini sucks ass, not even agent capable model, can’t edit a file properly

@edandersen Same as Microsoft devs using MacBooks.

@edandersen "opinions my own; not my employer's" guys when someone's opinions are their own and not their employer's

@edandersen No trip — the fact that someone works at Google doesn't make their personal tool choices automatically right for you. The gap between what they use and what serves your actual needs is real, not just a fan perspective.

@edandersen plot twist, he actually used gemini 3.5 pro and lied to us all
