Three Years from GPT-3 to Gemini 3 by Ethan Mollick

Three years ago, we were impressed that a machine could write a poem about otters. Less than 1,000 days later, I am debating statistical methodology with an agent that built its own research environment. The era of the chatbot is turning into the era of the digital coworker. To be very clear, Gemini 3 isn’t perfect, and it still needs a manager who can guide and check it. But it suggests that “human in the loop” is evolving from “human who fixes AI mistakes” to “human who directs AI work.” And that may be the biggest change since the release of ChatGPT.

Google announced Gemini 3.0 which takes it closer to the state of the art with respect to other models. They claim it’s better than the rest. In this field, that’s a little subjective.

It has given me an interesting headache though. I was planning to take yearly subscription of Claude. I will test this out instead now.

Instead of storing words as tokens, its system packs written information into image form, almost as if it’s taking a picture of pages from a book. This allows the model to retain nearly the same information while using far fewer tokens, the researchers found.

It also uses older or less critical info in slightly blurred pictures.

A picture is worth a thousand words after all.
