I don't really understand the amount of ongoing negativity in the comments. This is not the first time a product has been near copied, and the experience for me is far superior to code in a terminal. It comes with improvements even though imperfect, and I'm excited for those! I've long wanted the ability to comment on code diffs instead of just writing things back down in chat. And I'm excited for the quality of gemini 3.0 pro; although I'm running into rate limits. I can already tell its something I'm going to try out a lot!
- rvnx 10mo agoIt's not really good for real-life programming though, it invents lot of imaginary things, cannot respect its own instructions, forgets basic things (variable is called "bananaDance", then claims it is "bananadance", then later on "bananaDance" again). It is good at writing something from scratch (like spitting out its training set). Claude is still superior for programming and debugging. Gemini is better at daily life questions and creative writing.
- kanodiaayush 10mo agoyeah testing it out! good to know the above. My feel also is that claude is better so far.
- rvnx 10mo agoIt's not bad at all though, but it needs lot a baby-sitting like "try again, try this, try that, are you sure that it is correct ?" For example, in a basic python script that uses os.path.exists, it forgets the basic "import os", and then, "I apologize for the oversight".
- kanodiaayush 10mo agoSimilar stuff my end; I'm coding up a complex feature - Claude would have taken fewer interventions on my part, and would have been non buggy right off the bat. But apart from that the experience is comparable.
