HMM: Google Grapples With Employee Skepticism About New Gemini Model. “While Gemini 4 has performed well on benchmarks the industry uses to gauge model efficacy, it does less well when employees actually put it to work, according to people with direct access to the effort. The model struggles to handle certain coding tasks, said the people, who requested anonymity to discuss an internal matter.”

If true, I can’t say I’m surprised. I’m happy to use Grok, GPT, and Claude for their various strengths, but could never find a reason to use Gemini.
