I had a fantastic ‘first result’ with Gemini 3 but a few people on social media I respect didn’t. Key takeaway is to do your own testing with your use cases. I feel like I am now officially biased re: LLM infrastructure: I am retired, doing personal research and writing, and I decided months ago to drop OpenAI and Anthropic infrastructure and just use Google to get stuff done - except I still budget about two hours a week to experiment with local models and Chinese models’ APIs.
