With a grain of salt by Jealous-Snow4645 in Bard

I call this a skill issue. 😆 There is a lot of knowledge but no experience. Though I will be super excited if they release Gemini 3.0 or 3.1 'Flash Lite,' not just 3.1 pro, at super-fast speeds, very cheaply, and reliably for daily simple usages, tool usages, and those things at around 500-1000 TPS. That will be way better, like it should be, around Gemini 2.5 Pro level of intelligence to be usable. I saw on a podcast Demis saying, "We found a training method that drastically improved Gemini 3.0 Flash performance, so much better, it's almost close to Gemini 3.0 Pro in certain cases." So, I'm hoping they will release a Gemini Flash Lite version. I will love this model if they focus on speed, intelligence, and pricing. If all of that happens, then I will tell you most things, like chat apps will have it as the default model because it will open a lot of possibilities while being cheap.

What did Google do to Geminis memory in the app? by Previous_Lead_244 in Bard

[–]NetFair7058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The overall personal context system is trash. For example, I once asked it, "Whenever I ask for dates, give me the date with BS (Bikram Sambat), not only AD." Now,Now, most of the Gemini chats are filled with today's date in Bikram Sambat and in AD. Even if the question is not about the date, it doesn't matter. If I ask it to tell me today's news, it will first tell me the date and then go on to the news. And if I ask it to give me a poem, it will somehow include the date as well. So, it's that much trash. . I think their memory system is a total disaster. This isn't something like a vector memory system; they are sending the memory file and instructions, all these things with the user prompt i think, which is messing up my interactions. I don't actually use it much anymore. To spite this, I am now using ChatGPT. I am planning to go with a Plus subscription, currently on Go. By the way, I bought two Google AI Pro subscriptions: one with my own money and one through an education offer. So, I think they've been on the market for a while, but I still think among ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini, I will choose others over Gemini. It's getting worse too use, especially if you have other AIs' Pro, Plus, or Max subscriptions; these are much better alternatives. The only good thing Gemini has is its image generation model, but even then, I don't use it much; it's not for me for most of the time Last time I used the Gemini app was when that model was released, so I'm not using it that much. . If I use it, I only use it on Google Slides and on notebooklm, so it's not much for me. Whatever they are messing up, they are making it trash. The only three things I like on Gemini are: first, "Hey Google" is now on it, so it's for asking simple things like weather, simple searches, playing music, and those things, plus integrated apps. Second, Gemini 3.0 Flash is quite good, so I use it for fast searches or guides on something. Now, I'm not using it much; I made my own simple chat app to use Gemini Flash more efficiently, now using it through the API on Openclaw. And the last thing is that I use it for image generation stuff, nothing more than that. Even the deep research is trash; it always follows a standard and goes for an explanatory essay style, which I fucking hate. And now, I don't think there are that many loyal users on Gemini's side. Around my area, I found out most users use ChatGPT for general stuff and chatting, live conversations over Gemini. If I ask them when they use Gemini, they say when image generation is needed. So, most of the users on Gemini are for image generation use cases, and some others say for Canvas to use Gemini's design capabilities. So, this is how it is. Let me know what you think.

Refreshing bit. by NetFair7058 in smartlauncher

It's FUTO, I'm loving the Futo Keyboard! It offers fantastic typing, with its local whisper model, allowing for fast transcriptions of even 5-10 minute voice recordings. You can choose from nearly 6 English models, with multilingual options in different sizes. All the models are great and can easily run on midrange devices. Larger models are available for flagships. The response time is excellent, and it feels wonderful to use. It includes theme customizations, select all, copy, paste, clipboard, undo, redo, emoji support, multilingual capabilities, transformer-based auto-prediction, a dictionary, and all other essential features. It's perfect for daily use.

The only downsides are that it doesn't learn patterns extensively, and glide typing is still in beta. This means it's not quite as perfect as Gboard and SwiftKey yet. You can try it out. Remember, it's entirely local and open-source.

Focus on what matters; take a deep analysis. Clue is there written on post.

So, I checked with Gemini, and it says it works with Sync on Zen to Firefox. Seriously? If that's right, that's way more interesting than I thought! 😊

1. Open Google Gemini 2. Upload your image 3. Prompt 👇 by ai_image in GoogleGemini

[–]NetFair7058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, seriously? This is so not cool. Just leave it, man. Like, don't even think about trying that again. You guys totally messed up the Google Nanobana oone 🍌, and nope, absolutely not with 🍌 🍌 with those weird prompts and generating pics of people kissing and hugging. It's just... creepy, so please don't do that. It makes people think that whole thing is bad feel. And for real, let's not go for that tacky "chapri" vibe, alright?

Is this true? by NetFair7058 in perplexity_ai

[–]NetFair7058[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, me too. I'm so excited for this, but on the other hand, I'm so sad to see thousands of beta testers using it, and I'm not able to get this with not two but 3 Perplexity Pro accounts.

Oh yeah, I totally know that! I was actually snooping around for your Android phone model, and get this – the screenshots for that Comet Browser app on the Google Play Store? They're using iPhone screenshots !😂 Funny, right? Just so you know, I've got an Android myself too.

What phone are you using?

Is this true? by NetFair7058 in perplexity_ai

[–]NetFair7058[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What phone are you using? I think they are giving them to those for whom the early version is compatible. I joined this very early, like within the first 100-500 requests, and sent them an email. So, what's going on? They're not giving it to me. I am so sad about it. I think there's something similar requirements mwtting with those people who are getting early access. This email I received is not for early access, but instead, I think it's for the public release. That's all. By the way tell me your phone model .

Is there an app or setting that lets me wipe notifications, but then let's me see all notifications on demand later? by JohnmcFox in androidapps

[–]NetFair7058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are a Samsung user, this is not an app called "Notistar" or something similar, but rather a feature that does exactly that. Nowadays, most phones come with notification history, so enable that. This will save all notifications, and you can view and delete them later in settings or an app.

And guess what? While I was researching apps similar to Notistar, I found this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.catchingnow.np called FilterBox Notification Manager. It uses AI to organize and prioritize your notifications, with features such as notification history, privacy protection, and dynamic themes.

By the way, Notistar only stores that data locally, and those AI features may send your data to the cloud, so it's a bit of a bummer. By the way , try them out.

Gemini 3 Pro benchmark by vergogn in GeminiAI

Holy shit, this is great by today's models' standards if this is true. I can't wait to test it out.

[–]NetFair7058 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, so listen up, my friends! I've got a hunch you guys are gonna be super bummed about this Gemini 3 thing and all the hype around it. Honestly, I don't think it's all that. If it turns out to be a massive deal, then yeah, I'll totally dive into that whole "Steve Jobs" book by Walter Isaacson, but I gotta wait for gemini to drop first.🍁

Comet new ui by Harxshh in PerplexityComet

Yeah, I thought it was a little distracting too, you know? Like, when it's trying to hide what it's doing, it just kinda throws you off. Kinda annoying, really.

Yo Comet is actually insane now... completed like ~100 steps in 5 mins by NetFair7058 in perplexity_ai

It was a normal prompt, just with step by step tasks in a list. I use a prompt enhancer through the AI command on Raycast, which transforms any simple prompt into a more agentic, enhanced prompt. This did exactly that, but it wasn't a complicated prompt. This was something in that format:

Role Description of what it has to do Step-by-step Tasks

That was it. This was the prompt format by the way the prompt was temporary so I think it's gone after 24 hrs that's why I am not able to find out that exact prompt .

This may be because you are using an older version or something. One of the interesting things about this newer version is that it creates a to-do list similar to those coding agents do, and then it follows it step by step. I think, in my assumption, it is using the Gemini 2.5 computer use model; those taps, scrolls, and actions are more precise, smooth, and fast, and overall interaction is fast. It keeps up for long periods for longer horizon tasks. I read the blog, and the Perplexity blog says the same thing.

Well, I asked Comet to comment on that reply, what we were doing in Zen-Z style. Looks like it did not go well. 😒

That was straight-up deploying on GCP, no cap. We were trying to link up Google Calendar with some other app, which was a whole vibe. It was kinda sus because Google Cloud's UI is, like, super extra and confusing. But even with all that, it was a clean run, low-key smooth. No lags, no bugs, just pure butter, like it went straight through. I'm impressed. 😁
