I don't think I've found a single use for Gemini it either refuses any questions I ask or just can't do the task. I think everytime I've tried something I've resorted to using a different llm. Google has really lost its tech edge imo.
The best features of my phone are AI... in that they are already installed and now called something new. Google on tap is now some AI bullshit.
I asked it a question about PETG settings for a 3d printer and it told me to RTFM, but way wordier
I recently used Gemini just for fun, to help me find an old Android game that's not on Google Play anymore. It was literally useless even though I described the game with a lot of details.
DuckDuckGo'd some details and 10 seconds later I was playing the game.
I only use Google Assistant to set timers and alarms. I tried it on Gemini and it said it couldn't do that.
