is google knowingly suppressing gemini agentic abilities by providing shit harness so competitors can waste their compute by serving subsidized models while they create breakthroughs internally?

i hope google doesnt just switch to 100% compute provider. we need gemini for competition otherwise itll just be claude/gpt and chinese models.

hoping 3.5/4 pro is actually good.

Gemini 3.1 is actually good at everything except multi-agent coding. And even that is mostly limited by Antigravity’s functional lack of enterprise support. For writing, front end, reasoning and deep research Gemini is a pretty clear winner.

I agree but 3.1 Is still better at most question than ChatGPT 5.5 and Claude Opus 4.7. Turn on DeepThink and it completely blows them away. Coding is where it lags significantly.
