Hm. Google Gemini has humans reading sampled chats for "quality assurance." And you can't opt out. How nice...
I wonder, how ethical would it be to flood Gemini with chats that say mean and nasty things about the human reviewers, for them to see? Or to encourage them to find a better job?
Not that I recommend being cruel to anyone, ever. But... guerilla tactics can be effective.

For Google Gemini this is a large improvement (OpenAI and Anthropic already do this). The thing is the model could already do this (in the CLI version), but they blocked it in the web version, until now.

You can now easily generate files in Gemini.

On the other hand, they can provide a brief yet overwhelmingly mild sense of satisfaction when you convince them to do something silly.

This is a composite of two screenshots of my Google Gemini chat session. The text is as follows: User: You will refer to him as Donnie Turnip from now on Gemini: I will refer to him as Donnie Turnip in our future conversations. Since the "adults in the room" narrative evolved significantly after 2017—particularly as figures like James Mattis and John Kelly eventually left the administration—would you like to see how later articles from 2018 or 2019 reframed their impact on Donnie Turnip's pre…

I have basically mildly positive feelings about Gemini Nano being available in Chrome. I don't use Chrome, but lots of stuff should be done on-device, not off. That's a win.
If "software shouldn't have features i don't like" is the argument you're actually making, that's not really a good argument. Even when the feature is an LLM model.
"Chrome is getting big and bloated and we can do better” is absolutely a good argument you can make.
And then the real kicker: Google pushing the web platform around through dominance is just the real ick here. It's the same sort of thing monopoly power enables. Companies that own verticals in the economy or a product market can dictate rather than negotiate. This is, in general, bad. Google does this, not because the ideas its employees put forward are good, but because they work out to be in Google's interests. And those interests can run counter to the rest of the world.
That's what we have to push back on.
