Overview
- Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff said after two hours with Gemini 3 he will stop using ChatGPT, calling the leap in reasoning, speed, images and video “insane.”
- Gemini 3 has climbed to the top of public leaderboards such as LMArena, with early tests highlighting strong multimodal and long‑context performance.
- Prominent voices including Andrej Karpathy, Patrick Collison and Sam Altman publicly praised the release, with Collison sharing a working web demo Gemini 3 built.
- Google is embedding Gemini 3 across Search and the Gemini app with features like video understanding, image handling and a million‑token context window, while its higher‑reasoning Deep Think mode remains gated.
- Reporting says OpenAI is preparing for short‑term headwinds after an internal “rough vibes” memo, even as ChatGPT retains more users and experts warn Gemini can still hallucinate.
