What a finish! Gemini 2.5 Pro just completed Pokémon Blue!  Special thanks to @TheCodeOfJoel for creating and running the livestream, and to everyone who cheered Gem on along the way.



Planning a Blue run with Gemini 3 on the side channel later this week or early next week to see how much faster it'll beat the game—give a follow if interested! twitch.tv/genai_plays


Last weekend, as an early tester for Gemini 3 Pro, I ran it through my Gemini Plays Pokemon harness to see how it compares to 2.5 Pro. The boosts in spatial reasoning, navigation, metacognition, and vision are striking. Full breakdown here 🎮 blog.jcz.dev/gemini-plays-p…


We're live! Gemini 3 Pro vs 2.5 Pro head-to-head in Pokémon Crystal. Minimal harness & full agentic freedom w/ the ability to write their own tools and manage their own persistent memory in a notepad. Which one will use it better? Come hang out! :) twitch.tv/gemini_plays_p…


the race starts in just over an hour. gemini 3 pro vs 2.5 pro. head to head. we all know who's gonna win, but let's see by how much. come watch the stomp! twitch.tv/gemini_plays_p…


Speaking as an early tester for this, it's quite good. Will replace VSCode moving forward.

Meet Google Antigravity, your new agentic development platform. An evolution of the IDE, it's built to help you: - Orchestrate agents operating at a higher, task-oriented level - Run parallel tasks with agents across workspaces - Build anything with Gemini 3 Pro.

Introducing Gemini 3 Pro, the world's most intelligent model that can help you being anything to life. It is state of the art across most benchmarks, but really comes to life across our products (AI Studio, the Gemini API, Gemini App, etc) 🤯

I cannot stress how significant of an improvement Gemini 3 is when it comes to visual reasoning. This might actually make a vision-only Pokemon agent possible.

How many people know that when you download a boot video from Steam Deck Repo or Animation Changer (which sources from SDR)... it's me, I made Steam Deck Repo! :D It always brings a smile to my face seeing it out in the wild. #steamdeck

THE REAL GabeCube boot up screen is now available also for Steam Deck and Steam Machine soon Made by DentureTaco

Imagine posting that Gemini made zero progress when a) you used 2.0 Pro Exp which came out in Feb and b) it explicitly says it lacks access to real-time info This is w/ 2.5 Pro btw, it takes corrections gracefully & 2nd try is w/ Grounding enabled And 3.0 is around the corner.
