Request subtopic be changed to “I used Gemini to design a tool to replace specific uses of Gemini.”

The thinking people who would find this interesting and read this are probably more than capable of understanding this and critical enough to expect that. Conversation over the title is distraction of what's important. Just stick to keeping original source title and let people vote and down vote if they don't like it. That's what votes are for.

Or just: "I used Gemini to generate a tool".

Use the original title: Submit the actual title from the source page unless it is misleading or linkbait.
And this can be said to be misleading in my opinion

It's regularly the case that they are simply too long to fit, so editorializing is necessary. Either cutting them slightly short, removing descriptors, excess verbs etc, is better than chopping a word in half.

I agree, this is misleading.
If he wanted a Gemini replacement verbatim, its called locally inferring it's sibling, Gemma.

I think this is the way. An LLM is an expensive general purpose tool and for repeatable tasks, after it's clarified the process flow, it builds cheaper special purpose tools for each step

> So I scrape the Reddit threads where people argue about them and pull out every brand, model and steel they mention, to see what is getting bought and argued about.
Funny, normal harness with web search would one shot this, after like 20 minute search. "Replacing gemini" usually means instaling some(any)thing else, not digging deeper to get out of hole called gemini.
As for knifes, it is all same. Just do not buy total junk. Japanese knifes are way way overpriced.

The other day I wanted to gather Reddit comments about a solar panel vendor. Claude doesn't have access to I had Gemini do some "deep research". When I fed the verbose report back to Claude it basically said it was a bunch of "hallucinated bullshit".

Use Claude code and the chrome plugin to access reddit.

I've never had a Gemini Deep Research report that didn't sound like a load of pseudo-intellectual BS. It always starts with a long grandiose preamble and then sounds way too academic, almost like a caricature of academia.

Well was it hallucinated bs?

I was hoping he tricked Gemini into running the training on the cluster that Gemini itself is running on. That would be novel!

I found it much more useful to go to a knife shop and handle a whole bunch of knives for myself. They’re all pretty similar besides material, so not much signal you’re going to be able to glean from people arguing on reddit.

Most of the attributes don’t matter. Most people would be much better off with a $50 Victorinox that they kept sharp and a wood cutting board they maintained than upgrading the knife. If you are using it all day there are definitely looking things from a comfort perspective but for most homes, does not matter.

Genuinely appreciate the honesty. If you believe there’s nothing wrong about writing with AI, there’s no reason to not own up to it.

Isn't it just learning to map specific words, from the "knife world", to the correct class? If so, a simple dictionary would fit.
What I think is a better way to validate is to split train/validation by words used presented in NER classes (like, it should be able to find new brands never seen before). It is a interesting problem.
