Scientific research and proof-reading. Gemini is the laziest LLM I've used. Frequently he will lie that he searched for something and just make stuff up, basically never happens to me when I'm using gpt5.2.
- flexagoon 9mo agoDo you use it directly? I've only used it though Kagi Assistant but it works better than any other model for me
- azan_ 9mo agoYes, only directly (I mean through the default gemini interface, not API).
- flexagoon 9mo agoMaybe they messed something up in the official interface then. I've heard that the PDF processing capabilities are also significantly worse in Gemini UI compared to using it through the API or Google AI Studio.
- buu700 9mo agoThe way I summed it up to a friend recently is that Gemini 3 is smarter but Grok 4 works harder. Very loose approximation, but roughly maps to my experience. Both are extremely useful (as is GPT-5.2), but I use them on different tasks and sometimes need to manage them a bit differently.
