Gemini felt genius on October 12, 2025.

I kept asking Gemini anything, but every single query returned the same useless reply. It was like the model was completely dead‑locked, giving me no information at all. I felt stuck and frustrated, wasting time trying to get a simple answer, and wondering if anyone else was facing this broken behavior.

I’ve been using Gemini’s daily work brief feature for a month, and lately it started spitting out details that belong to a coworker’s brief—specific names, meetings, and document titles. The links are dead, and when I probe, Gemini gives only vague, generic answers. It feels unsettling and untrustworthy, like the tool is mixing up users’ data.

I spent months feeding Gemini niche industry code and tutorials, then was shocked when a fresh chat produced perfect, proprietary functions without any context. Other AIs failed, but Gemini seemed to have retained my inputs, proving it fine‑tuned on our conversations. The experience was both thrilling and a bit unsettling, highlighting how powerful—and invasive—the feedback loop can be.
