I’m yet to have any Gemini model find a real bug, and Gemini’s results for general work will sometimes border malicious compliance

Got in the way: Gemini results border malicious compliance and it misses real bugs.

While that’s true, I have found Gemini models to be exclusively good for data extraction, and absolutely terrible at everything else. I pay for lots of models because they’re good at different things: $20 a month each for Grok and GLM have easily paid for themselves by finding bugs that my main work models didn’t, but I’m yet to have any Gemini model find a real bug, and Gemini’s results for general work will sometimes border malicious compliance, when it’s not having a hissy fit about some imagined issue.
