alt Hacker NewsTangental observation - I've noticed Gemini 3 Pro's train of thought feels very unique. It has kind of an emotive personality to it, where it's surprised or excited by what it finds. It feels like a senior developer looking through legacy code and being like, "wtf is this??".
I'm curious if this was a deliberate effort on their part, and if they found in testing it provided better output. It's still behind other models clearly, but nonetheless it's fascinating.
Yeah it's COT is interesting, it was supposedly RL on evaluations and gets paranoid that it's being evaluated and in a simulation. I asked it to critique output from another LLM and told it my colleague produced it, in COT it kept writing "colleague" in quotes as if it didn't believe me which I found amusing
