In addition, it's also relevant because for the last 3 months people have built things on top of this.
- amazingamazing 1y agointeresting - why wouldn't you use dynamic thinking? and yeah, sucks when the price changes.
- dcre 1y agoIt makes responses much slower with zero benefit for many tasks. Flash with thinking off is very fast.
- Workaccount2 1y agoTo be fair, the point of preview models and stable releases is so you know what is stable to build on.
- Aeolun 1y agoThe moment you start charging for preview stuff I think you give a tacit agreement that you can expect the price to not increase by a factor of 4.
- jjani 1y agoGmail was in beta for what, 2 decades? Did you never use it during that time? They've been using these "Preview" models on their non-technical user facing Gemini app and product for months now. Like, Google themselves has been using them in production, on their main apps. And gemini-1.5-pro is 2 months from depreciation and there was no production alternative. They told everyone to build their stuff on top of it, and then jacked up the price by 4x. Just pointing to some fine print doesn't change that.
- vardump 1y agoI'd be more worried about Google just discontinuing another product. For example Stadia was similarly high profile, but it's gone now. More examples here: https://killedbygoogle.com/ https://killedbygoogle.com/
