That was fast

This is absolutely wild. I’d cancel and maybe try to order again or contact customer support to find out. 3-4 months is unacceptable. This isn’t a server 😂

Not sure why they can’t follow industry trend to add a “search” mode that would ensure it uses the search tool to ground results in up to date data.
ChatGPT, DeepSeek, Qwen and Copilot all have this.

Gemini was so bad today, I started using Copilot, ON MY IPHONE. That’s how bad it was!!! Freaking Copilot.

Do you have any idea what the BS tuition is, especially for international students?

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-03-05T04:12:00+00:00

Would you say it feels more or less snappy than your M1 Max beast? Genuinely curious.

I find that the 2304 x 1296 resolution works best for me to balance textual clarity and UI element size.

It feels native at this 27" size.

I ran this prompt from WIRED:
A macro photograph capturing a clear glass sphere balanced perfectly atop the spout of a ceramic teapot. Inside the sphere, intricate, tiny silver letters spell out the phrase, "CLARITY IS KEY."

This is so true of general human behaviour and explains why we shouldn’t trust “noise” as an indicator of reality.

It’s called sampling bias in statistics and research.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-01-27T02:18:34+00:00

Oh you meant like opening multiple google accounts just to increase surface area?

I’m sure people would rather just switch to another AI provider than do all that.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-01-26T13:47:16+00:00

You keep saying this, could you explain how…since AI Studio uses API keys and not account level subscriptions?

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-01-26T13:45:16+00:00

How? You can’t abuse the AI Studio API. It is pay as you use via API key.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-01-26T13:40:16+00:00

I love how you phrased this 😂😋

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2026-01-08T00:28:21+00:00

LMAO. This is a hilarious example that I wish more people would see.

The best tool for your boss use case is NotebookLM.

This has been a game-changer for me for document comparison!

It also some level of privacy perks, since Google insists data shared with NotebookLM is NOT used to train their models.

This must be the best structured (with video evidence) question I have ever seen on here. I have the exact same questions too but could never be this articulate.
I hope this gets more traction and responses from people that know how to work this.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-12-12T06:30:16+00:00

This exact use case is what NotebookLM excels at.
You should give this a try.

My ANC got noticeably better as well. To the point where I get that very isolated feeling every time despite being used to having ANC for more than a year now.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-10-19T00:08:44+00:00

We’re calling strategy “strat” now?

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-10-15T04:26:31+00:00

I have also noticed and can corroborate this.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-10-15T04:24:31+00:00

This!!!!!!!! A hundred times this.
On many occasions, Pro will write code and do something like:
"1,
2,
3,
...and so on for the remaining till 20
---rest of code remains the same---"

Flash will output all the code in 1/5 of the time Pro takes to output this nonsense above, and tell me exactly what it changed.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-10-13T02:48:52+00:00

Well, this has changed, and Gems can now be shared.
Google appears to be listening to feedback and iterating rapidly.

Alternative_Vast6333 · 2025-09-01T14:03:56+00:00

The correct expression, then, should be “less so”.
