Anecdote: Gemini 3.5 casually added a DROP TABLE for an actual production table in a system test.

It had previously attempted to create that table as part of the test setup, so it apparently concluded that it was a test table.

During human review, it explained that it had simply chosen a table name inspired by the codebase.

Another anecdote: Gemini is the only model that’s flat out lied to me, then accused me of lying when I provided evidence that it was wrong.

Many other models get things wrong, but Gemini is the only one to go on the defensive.

yeah it got something wrong, confused itself, then claimed i was gaslighting it. bizarre
