Perhaps I shouldn't have implied an expectation of lots of explicit mentions of "AGI". It is more the general sentiments being expressed, and the extent to which critical takes seem to be quickly buried.

I'm totally open to being wrong though. Maybe the tech community is just that excited about Gemini 3's release.

HN doesn't seem particularly excited.

On most of the front pages, negative sentiments have floated to the top, especially the Antigravity pages.

Not sure if this is agreeing or disagreeing with there being astroturfing.

But I'd reckon that the negative sentiments at the top, combined with that there are over eight Gemini 3 posts on the front page recently, is good evidence of manipulation. This actually might be the most posted about model release this year, and if people were that excited we wouldn't have negative sentiment abound.
