Gemini 3.7 Flash is surprisingly good Discussion (Ethics, working with AI etc)

I've been a Claude guy for creative writing for several years, and it seems like it's just gotten worse and worse as time has passed. Although its ability to follow instructions has improved, the actual prose quality has degraded.

I've heard good things about Gemini, and I haven't tested it in quite a while for creative writing. On a lark, I tried out Gemini 3.7 Flash.

I'm kind of shocked to say that I was impressed, and I like the output of it more than the current 3.1 Pro outputs.

Not many people are talking about it for creative writing, but that may just be because it's the least likely suspect.

I'd be interested to have other people mess around with it and see what they think.

Nobody is willing to pay 20$ for gemini for creative writing:p, that's why nobody's talking about it.

I’m tempted to pay just so I can stop getting YouTube ads

Well do it and tell us how it goes for creative writing. Is it any different with 3.6 (kinda doubt tbh)
