I have heard that gemini 3 is not that great in cursor, but excellent in Antigravity. I don't have a time to personally verify all that though.

I‘ve had no success using Antigravity, which is a shame because the ideas are promising, but the execution so far is underwhelming. Haven‘t gotten past an initial plannin doc which is usually aborted due to model provider overload or rate limiting.

My first couple of attempts at antigravity / Gemini were pretty bad - the model kept aborting and it was relatively helpless at tools compared to Claude (although I have a lot more experience tuning Claude to be fair). Seems like there are some good ideas in antigravity but it’s more like an alpha than a product.

Nothing is great in Cursor.

It's just not great at coding, period. In Antigravity it takes insane amounts of time and tokens for tasks that copilot/sonnet would solve in 30 seconds.

It generates tokens pretty rapidly, but most of them are useless social niceties it is uttering to itself in it's thinking process.

I think gemini 3 is hot garbage in everything. Its great on a greenfield trying to 1 shot something, if you're working on a long term project it just sucks.
