> Gemini 4 helped with the editing.

Does this guy have access to Gemini 4 already?

I'm guessing Gemma 4 was happy to be mistaken for Gemini and didn't catch this mistake.

“Helping” is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence! It appears to be 100% AI.

I couldn't get through it.

I find it exhausting trying to read anything that smells remotely like linkedin AI slop at this point.

Yes correct, Gemma. Will correct it shortly.

If you wrote an initial draft you should consider using a better model or just posting what you wrote.

The smaller models can be sufficient for coding but for document writing not highly specific I've yet to be satisfied with AI output. I certainly wouldn't expect gemma to produce good outputs.

Makes sense, perhaps I'll post the raw notes + more material with the next article, prior to any edit. I like to use local models, even if they are not that powerful precisely because of that, I'm forced to put in more thought and it's my signed off article in the end.

Thank you for the suggestion.

You don't build credibility by putting out slop and correcting it every time someone points out that it's wrong. You think it's our job to proofread and fact-check?

A genuine mistake. I make these posts for myself, mainly to structure & share my thoughts. Let me know if you find other errors, I appreciate the feedback.
