Gemini 2.5 used to be solid. It still would fuck up sometimes, but its ability to remember small details throughout a long conversation and weave them in as relevant was phenomenal. It felt conversationally good to use it for that reason, at least for bouncing ideas off of and getting perspectives I didn't consider myself.
Every model of it since has been like talking to a compulsive liar that also has dementia. Like someone you can largely trust to go cook some eggs, but tell them to go grab a complex recipe I asked for last week and make it again, and they'll confidently say they've never seen that recipe before or made it in their life. I guess lobotomizing your product compared to your competitors all in the name of saving on cost seemed like a good idea to someone at Google
