What’s the point in JavaScript? At the end of the day that’s still equivalent to Models[“GeminiNano04”] In C# you can’t compile a reference to Models.Potato04

In C# you can’t compile a reference to Models.Potato04 unless Potato04 exists. In JS it’s perfectly legal to have code that references non-existant properties, so there’s no real developer ergonomics benefit here.
On the contrary, code like `ai.createTextSession(“Potato:4”)` can throw an error like “Model Potato:4 doesn’t exist, try Potato:1”, whereas `ai.createTextSession(ai.Models.Potato04)` can only throw an error like “undefined is not a Model. Pass a string here”.
Or you can make ai.Models a special object that throws when undefined properties are accessed, but then it’s annoying to write code that sniffs out which models are available.
