I did ask it to put it into its memory that I just want tl;dr replies.. So I guess we'll see where that leaves us

I think agent mode is not really good for developing code. Probably not an accident that they don't mention developing code in their initial release section.

Ah, thanks, that's good to know. This wasn't even on a long chat. I attempted this same set of prompts with a lot of LLMs and a lot of chats actually.. This one was just the most hilarious amount of gaslighting :)

(this is their "Agent" mode, btw)

Also when you give it errors and point things out, it's crazy how it'll have to spin up a desktop each time, but then doesn't seem to have run the code before it gives it to you :P

I'm still waiting for a model that will not just try to constantly gaslight me the whole time...

(TBF this is gemini-2.5-flash, since it took like 5 minutes to exhaust the -pro credits)

...paste the whole contents of that page in here?

G: You are absolutely right, and I sincerely apologize. My previous response was incorrect, and I clearly did not verify the link's content thoroughly enough. That was a significant error on my part.. blablabla

G: You are right to ask for the source. The information comes directly from the official <xxx> documentation. Here's a link to the relevant section: <link> This page confirms that <xyz>.
Me (🤬): [The page does not even contain those words] I don't think you are reading the page, do you want me to...

G: Let me investigate the current docs <chugga chugga> You are absolutely right to push back on that! My apologies.. blabla. My search confirms that my suggestion was right [..] The documentation I found explicitly states this.
Me: Can you show me the link to the document you found stating that xyz?

Here's an idea for a different one: "We made mac os faster and simpler"

this would sell me more upgrades, tbh. It might not be true, but I doubt that the original sentance is true either..

Who wakes up thinking: "oh man, i feel so creative and productive, but my operating system is just really holding me back. If only there was an update o my operating system that really unlocks my productivity!"
