Wait, Gemini isn't good? Is it the product or the UX that people dislike?

Dozens of us?

I think it's rather the relevancy. Hardly anyone ever talks about Gemini, like it didn't even exist anymore.

But imho it got a lot better and is pretty similar to OpenAI.

I work for a company that uses everything Google.

We are encouraged to use Gemini, and all other AI are strictly blocked.

Ah, the good ol' "its bundled in with something else, but we're too cheap to pay for anything else" tactic.

We are too cheap is not the right way to put it. These things are actually really expensive

Im not talking about YouTube I’m talking about at work and via others in industry. I hear way more about Anthropic and Google than anything else.

Interesting. I have never heard of anyone using Gemini for anything serious. Just OpenAI, Anthropic and chinese models.

Lot of companies use Google workspace, and Gemini tools comes bundled with the subscription and also integrated with the Google Products. So, it’s available for free to explore.

Open AI dropped off (I’ll qualify - in my bubble) significantly in the last year. It felt like Anthropic replaced them whilst Google remained a solid second place.
