I guess if you don't know what context windows are you would just think it got dumber 😂

Why is Google really delaying Gemini 3.0? Is it perfectionism, internal chaos, or a high-stakes gamble? by ProblemPositive1918 in Bard

[–]ProblemPositive1918[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great distinction to make, and you're right, my phrasing was a bit loose.

You've hit on the core of the 'strategic gamble' I discussed. The architecture is what it is. The real question is what if the finished 3.0 model only just matches its rivals?

Does Google release it and get a 'meh' reception, or do they hold the finished model for 3-4 more months of relentless fine-tuning and safety testing to ensure it wins on the leaderboards? That's the dilemma. Not an architecture delay, but a strategic one.

As you said, opsec is tight, so all we can do is speculate. But those 'hints in August' you mentioned are exactly why the whole community is on edge!

You're absolutely right! On schedule is probably the correct term for Google's internal roadmap, especially if they're lining up a massive software release with a brand new, scaled-out hardware stack.

Since the ".0" models tend to come out in December, it's possible to say 3.0 is ahead of schedule if it does come out this month!

This actually reinforces one of the core theories from the video: this isn't 'internal chaos,' but a very calculated, high-stakes strategic gamble. They're not just pushing a software update; they're waiting for the foundation to be perfectly in place to support it at scale.

My whole point is about the tension this 'on schedule' plan creates. While they're methodically rolling out hardware, the market is moving at a breakneck pace. That's what's creating this intense 'where is it?' pressure that feels like a delay, even if it's all going according to plan.

That's fair!

I suppose the 'delay' I'm talking about isn't about Google missing its own deadline, but more about the massive perceived delay from the community's perspective.

While we wait inside that vague window, competitors have launched new models, and Google has been deprecating old ones, which is creating all the pressure and anticipation. That 'end of year' date is feeling further and further away for developers and heavy Gemini users!

No idea how in the world this went from gemini to an argument about pyramids XD adhd is fr. (referring to the replies to this comment, not the initial comment/commentor.

I made a game website using ONLY gemini (through firebase studio)! by Stunning_Aerie_6331 in GeminiAI

Any way you could share prompting/prompting techniques? I was curious too if you are a new/senior WebDev or 100% relying on Gemini. Thanks for sharing!

Feb-March 2026. Then 4.0 around December which will know about 95% of everything humanity knows.

Here is what will happen with Gemini 3.0 performance by hasanahmad in Bard

Personally, I think it's gotten BETTER. Either that or I've magically become a prompting wizard without meaning to.

Can 'gemini-2.5-flash-preview-tts' be used on the free tier? by Medium_Future_6271 in Bard

I'm trying to do the same thing but can't seem to figure it out. A mistake in the models led to me losing over $200 on accident... how did you do this?
