Gemini is very prone to go into an infinite loop. Sometimes, it even happens with Google's own vibe coding IDE (Antigravity): https://bsky.app/profile/egeozcan.bsky.social/post/3maxzi4gs...

I don't think that it is related to a specific prompt, like a "prompt logic issue" badly understood by the model, but instead, it looks like that sometimes it generates things that makes it go nuts.
My best intuition is that sometimes it forgets all the context and just look at the last X tokens as context before the repetition, and so start repeating like if the last generated tokens are the only thing that you gave to it.
The progress is undeniable, the performance only ever goes up, but I'm not sure if they ever did anything to address this type of deficiency specifically. As opposed to being carried upwards by spillover from other interventions.
Isn't this a problem with the agent loop / structure, rather than the llm, in that case?
The ide doesn't affect the models results, just what is done with those results?
