This got my trying Gemini, but doing so is such a hassle that I'm almost ready to give up. Trying out ChatGPT is as simple as signing up (either for pro, or the API), and getting a single API key.
Google requires me to navigate their absolutely insane console (seriously, I thought the AWS console was bad, but GCP takes the cake), only to tell me there is not even a way to get an API key... I had to ask Gemini through the built in interface to figure that out.
- fakedang 3y agoAPI keys are fairly straightforward in GCP though - there's an entire section for that, and even if you're stuck, the search console works.
- Aeolun 3y agoHere is an entire comment complaining it’s not straightforward, and you make a comment that essentially comes down to ‘no it is’?
- fakedang 3y agoI honestly don't know how to explain it any better. There's a devoted section for generating API keys, and once you are on that page, the walk-through workflow indicated on the page itself is very straightforward.

- jiggawatts 3y agoThat just redirects to an FAQ page with instructions like "If you get X error, then..." There is no error, it just redirects me. Fail.

- is_true 3y agoWeird, it should go to a login try: https://aistudio.google.com/app https://aistudio.google.com/app
- jiggawatts 3y agoSame result. Redirects me to here: https://ai.google.dev/tutorials/workspace_auth_quickstart https://ai.google.dev/tutorials/workspace_auth_quickstart
- Aeolun 3y agoThat, and I found somewhere it wants to use all my data for training, which was a non-starter. Unfortunately I couldn’t find that page any more after the first time I found it.
