AI coding: Gemini 3 is very strong at front-end work, but in other areas it seems not as good as Codex, and it doesn’t feel very stable right now. So I don’t dare hand the project over to it—if it does something stupid and deletes stuff, I’d be heartbroken. I’ll still let Codex do the work.
What I like most, though, is the experience in the Gemini app. Gemini 3 Pro is a significant improvement over the previous generation. And now it has been streamlined down to just the “Fast” and “Thinking” model options, with everything else moved into “Tools.” That’s the kind of product planning that makes sense.
