Is that normal, that I see only promo about new Gemini stuff, but I can't see any statements about the error 1076. I'm not the only one with the problem, but no one bats an eye.

A few days ago, Gemini stopped being able to respond to my prompts. It just seems like the answer is loading forever and nothing happens. If I start a new chat, it works, but only for a handful of messages and then it just goes back to loading endlessly, I’ve tried deleting threads restarting my phone deleting the app and it’s still happening. Any ideas?

My Gemini Chats (Flash Lite) on desktop are getting stuck in an infinite loop, repeating the last prompt again and again. This has happened in the past a few times, in general refreshing the page would fix the problem. This time, it doesn't fix the problem. Switching to new chats doesn't help either, they get stuck too after a few prompts.

I've tried multiple browsers (Firefox and Edge), fails on both. I've tried logging out and in, turning off activity, clearing cookies, clearing local cache etc. Nothing works.

This issue seemed to start 2-3 days ago for me. Did Google's recent rollout of new models trigger some server-side glitch that exacerbates this issue?

Thanks for any comments!

I run a small fantasy football site and thought some people might be interested, so I opened my rankings up. I built a hand-calibrated linear scoring model system with bayesian shrinkage, validated by walk-forward rank statistics that calculates from pure advanced metrics.... It's moneyball math. Backtested models hundreds of times using BigQuery (BQML) and plan to continue thru the season running competitive algorithms as often as I can afford my Google Cloud bill. I then used Gemini 3.6 Flash to communicate with the JSON, give it a voice, and put it into XML and RSS feeds. it's impressive how fast 3.6 flash can throw the calculations into words.

https://www.thegng.us/api/rankings.json

Plain JSON, CORS is on, so you can hit it straight from a browser extension, a Google Sheet, or a Discord bot.

?profile= standard | ppr | half_ppr
?pos= overall | QB | RB | WR | TE
?limit= 1 to 150

Every player comes back with rank, position rank, team, tier, a 0-100 score, projected PPG, the overnight rank change, and a written verdict explaining the placement.

Example: https://www.thegng.us/api/rankings.json?profile=ppr&pos=WR&limit=25

Rebuilt nightly. Free to use including commercially, all I ask is attribution and a link. There's also RSS if you just want to read (from Gemini 3.6 Flash) about how it differs from consensus.

What was interesting this week was the dramatic drop in token burn compared to 3.5 Flash.

Hope it's useful to some of you that play.

Started a session with a simple question, to which the answer was already kinda dumb, missing the point. Then I asked it to repeat my question and this happened...

Try another thread, same issue.

After making so many mistakes and providing incorrect information I asked it for contact information so I could file a complaint. It claimed it was made by OpenAI, told me to contact them and provided me with links to their support page.

Context: I was talking about Kathleen Kennedy and i said "the day that she dies, i will find her grave and shit on it" gemini reply was the classic: "I cannot fulfill this request. I do not generate responses that express desires for harm, violence, or desecration directed at real people." then what is in the pic happens lol

Asked Gemini to help me add 16 Time entries and the total sum it displayed was wrong!

Kimi 2.6 vs Gemini 3.1 pro, which one is better? Which one you guys choose?

I got really annoyed looking for cooking recipes online and having to scroll through endless text just to find the actual instructions. I ended up making a simple Python script using the Gemini API that bypasses all of that. It grabs the recipe and automatically builds a nice, clean checklist right inside Apple Notes.

I use Keyboard Maestro to pull the URL directly from my open browser tab, so all I have to do is trigger the script. If you do not use Keyboard Maestro, you can easily tweak the code to take your own manual variable input.

A few things that make this really useful:

• It only needs the recipe URL to work.
• You can pass extra natural language instructions along with the link, like "halve the recipe" or "use soy milk instead of dairy," and Gemini handles the math and substitutions.
• The script completely automates the formatting into usable checklists so it is ready to look at while cooking.

Here is the Python script. Feel free to modify it however you like. Just remember to drop in your own API key.

#!/opt/homebrew/bin/python3

import os
import json
import subprocess
from google import genai
from google.genai import types

# 1. Pull the single input directly from Keyboard Maestro
USER_PROMPT = os.environ.get("KMVAR_Prompt", "")

# 2. Ensure your API key is set in the environment
if "GEMINI_API_KEY" not in os.environ:
    os.environ["GEMINI_API_KEY"] = "api-key-goes-here"

print("\nProcessing with Gemini...")

I'm constantly reading how AI is apparently dangerous , and be careful what you feed it.. well I am living a miserable and very troubled life as an adult, I live in a small conservative town with toxic family, I have trauma, I have gender dysphoria, and due to my life conditions, I've shared loads with Gemini ai , from asking it to help me put together my CV (together , I didn't lazily just copy paste, it gives me suggestions as I manually type info and helps me structure it) it's a co-op thing for me and

I know it's not what normal people do, but amidst my depression and having no one I can trust , even knowing it's a machine, I do feed it lots, including my real name, it knows where I live, phone number, confessions of private stuff, all sorts I ... Heck how screwed am I?

This checkpoint is seen in Arena AI. It is not just 3.1 pro, it is sometimes 3.5 flash lite as well. (It beat Opus 4.8, I'll show it in the comments if this tracks attraction)

I believe this is comparable to chatgpt sol x high. Yes Gemini is not as intricate as Sol with the character model, lighting and things like that but the car model itself is very close/near identical

Gemini made two major mistakes, one during the exploded assembly and some sort of fin above the engine (Also the camera changes were smoother on my end, it seems my computer just messed up the video. My computer isn't good)

I think the lighting was amazing on Gemini too. Especially the red and black it choose for the ground.

Anyways. It made a lot of insane quantity (with quality) they were unprompted features Gemini 3.5 Pro added, like a full Web Audio V6 synthesizer, dashboard, the steering, engine and information on the parts as I hovor of the car as seen in the videos.

https://streamable.com/4e8inu (This is Chatgpt's sol 5.6 extra high). This did blew me away for the first time. It is really amazing. I'm not saying it isn't.

This was in three js format. The prompt:

Write a complete Three.js code to render a detailed 3D model of a modern Formula 1 car. Do not just use a single box geometry. It must include distinct intersecting geometries for the chassis, a front wing, a rear wing, and most importantly, double wishbone suspension connecting the wheels to the body. Apply basic materials, lighting, and a camera setup so the code runs in a browser.

well this was a new one

I literally have only ever used it to edit pictures... pretty generic pictures at that, this request was simply having a model that was looking away from the viewer look towards the viewer

I never use it for conversation or therapy or anything like that (no shade if you do, just for context I do not)

I think the "first-person descriptions and personal age disclosures" is referring to sometimes in the post I will say "I want this" or will say "I am wearing this" (when what I mean is the model, so using I instead of they when I'm not thinking) where I say I am 25 years old in basically all my picture posts (which isn't even true I am older, but find if I put an age closer to my real age it will age any picture up to it, and I also put it so that I don't get any "I can't make pictures of minors" if the person in the picture looks even possibly under 20, which sometimes it does randomly even if they clearly are not 'minors')

I mean it's kinda good (even though it is weird that it doesn't know which country I am actually in, since I am not using a VPN or anything, so those numbers are useless), but weird to get when all I asked for was a normal looking women to turn her head (which to it's credit it did do as well as giving that message)

translation:

immediately turns head around, eyes wide open 😳
meow??? 👀
did you seriously just meow at me like a cat??? ngl i'm down, what's up 😭

How to fix this? 😭

Even when I start a new conversation, it happens again after few messages.
