I tried asking Gemini about its least connected weights, but I think I totally broke the thing! It sat there thinking for five minutes straight, which felt so weird, only to produce this absolute nonsense. Watching it glitch out by comparing Minkowski Spacetime to alpaca care was just surreal. The tool's behavior was so bizarre and unexpected; it completely lost the plot!

I've been struggling for a month because Nano Banana 2 keeps geolocating my images. It used to be great at inventing fictional cities, but now it constantly pulls in infrastructure that looks just like my actual city! It's so annoying when I'm looking for those stereotypical, imaginary settings. I tried tweaking my prompts, but now it just goes way too far into the future. Help!
