1: Press release about amazing AI development.
2: "Try it now!" the release always says.
3: I go try it.
4: Doesn't work. In this case, I give it a prompt to make a video and literally nothing happens, it goes back to the prompt. In the case of the breathtakingly astonishing Gemini 2.5 Coding - attach to source code file to the prompt "file type not supported".
That's the pattern - I've come to expect it and was not disappointed with Google Gemini 2.5 coding nor with this video thing they are promoting here.

- Workaccount2 2y agoIt's how you have to do it. The gemini model is excellent, but the implementation/chat environment seems like it was thrown together in a weekend as an afterthought. You cannot upload a .py file, but if you change the name to "main.txt" you can upload it, and it will automatically treat it as "main.py". Not sure how this hasn't been fixed yet, but it is google so...
- bornfreddy 2y agoThank you for explaining!
- throwup238 2y agoOn the contrary I had completely written off Google until a few days ago. Gemini 2.5 Pro is finally competitive with GPT/Claude, their Deep Research is better and has a 20/day limit rather than 10/month, and now with a single run of Veo 2 I’ve gotten a much better and coherent video than from dozens of attempts at Sora. They finally seem to have gotten their heads collectively unstuck from their rear end (but yeah it sucks not having access).

- martinald 2y agoI really don't know why Google especially seems to struggle with this so much. While Google have really been 'cooking' recently, every launch they do is like that. Gemini 2.5 was great but for some reason they launched it on web first (which still didn't list it) then a day or so later on app, at which point I thought it was total vapourware. This is the same - I have gemini advanced subscription, but it is nowhere to be seen in mobile or app. If you're having scale/rollout issues how hard is it to put the model somewhere and say 'coming really soon'? You don't know if it's not launched yet or you are missing where to find it.

- nolist_policy 2y agoOn Chrome you can share your whole Project directory to Gemini. I think it uses the File System Access api which Firefox doesn't support.
