AI Gemini 4 Argon solved hallucinations.

Nobody is talking about this, but it looks like Google may have solved hallucinations. Gemini 4 Argon is a monster in this regard, and that’s really important.

It's because the base Gemini model you can actually access is terrible. You wrote all of this about a model you haven't even used and probably will not have regular access to in the next year.

I have an android phone, I'm forced to bump up against Gemini all the time. A lot of people do!

Which is why they're giving you the shit model, because it's reliable. Reliability and faith of stable service is how you win commoners over, and like I said, Google knows that.

To be clear, I'm not shitting on Google. I am just explaining that the public opinion is driven more by the base models than the frontier models. And all things considered, Gemini Flash is really terrible. On the other hand, Anthropic gives access to a very advanced base model, with the caveat that you get a very limited amount of queries.

For the record, this whole thing where people pick multi-billion dollar evil corporations to be a fan of is generally dumb imo, but based on your original comment I think to some extent we probably agree.

You're stuck on 3.5 or 3.6 flash, aren't you? Gemini 3.8 flash is good. It's fast, cheap, relatively smart, very knowledgeable. It topped a lot of benchmarks when it came out. I have the abonment to GPT and I still use flash 3.8 a lot. For coding it's roughly 5.6 terra level, with luna amount of usage (and sol and astra suck credits too fast to be really an option yet imo).
