Google's latest model is remarkably fast and cost-effective
agreed. Gemini 3 flash is performing way better.
it’s so fast, and so good. they nailed it!
agreed
yeah. there was an engineer talking about this recently. and the good news is it’s signaling the new tech that is making flash so good will be dropped in pro soon. google is killing it!
Gemini 3 Flash seems to have a strange preference for tool calls. It occasionally shows a tendency to "solve everything with the command line."
For example, it tries to create and write files using command-line commands instead of calling the file-writing tool.
The probability of this happening is significantly higher than in other models with similar capabilities that I've used.
i’ve noticed this too, but i’ve been really impressed overall.
Thanks for the performance feedback
