    This reads as AI generated. Also Pangram thinks it’s 100% AI generated: https://www.pangram.com/history/5e8482d0-203e-435c-a89e-509e...

      Yes, I should have communicated more clearly I used an AI tool to help me compose my review about itself.

    I do not agree that not spawning agents makes things cost more, if at all a cycle of try / fix / repeat is easier to see and ctrl-c out of (assuming you are at the console and not letting things run while you sleep, which seems like a good idea on api pricing!) than a harness spawning 25 agents and burning through $200 in 10-15 minutes (not hard to do)

      Same. Popping on a VPN using the USA worked (I didn't try anything else).

      Also, I have the Google One AI Pro 5TB subscription and all I've used it for this week is asking some simple questions like looking up TV shows I forgot, helping me find a non-junk USBC cable and it checks my emails once a day and let's me know if anything important looking arrived, just in case I missed it. Just now I asked it to set a reminder and apparently I've maxed out my usage for this period and need to wait until 7pm. Crazy. I must have far higher usage from Gemini doing a few searches on Google with the AI overview, yet I'm limited in the part I actually pay for?!?

    My apologies for the excessive restriction on my link. Fixed. Yes I used the tool Gemini to write my review of Gemini Code as it would add some degree of impartiality on its own behalf. I wrote this comment myself so it will check as real and not AI for everyone.

    Not going to read it anyway, I see too many AI flags that I can safely assume this is garbage written by a robot

    A poor craftsman blames the tools.

    What is meant by "Gemini Code"? The "Antigravity CLI" or the deprecated, enterprise-only "Gemini CLI"? or the "Gemini Code Assist" extension for IDEs?
