Episode notes
Gemini's Low Usage
- Google's Gemini 2.5 has no rate limits and is free to use, unlike ChatGPT.
- This suggests low usage and makes it forgettable, despite a new vision model.
Google's Cultural Issues
- Google lacks a simple "chat with Gemini" button, hindering easy access.
- This is attributed to Google's internal culture, described as working on "someone else's PhD thesis."
Intel's New Direction

- This is due to Tan's background and potential government support.
