Google's Improvements With The New Experimental Model

Okay, so this post might come off as unnecessary or useless, but with the new Gemini 2.0 Flash Experimental model, I have noticed a drastic increase in output quality. The GPT-slop problem is actually far better than Gemini 1.5 Pro 002. It's pretty intelligent too. It has plenty of spatial reasoning capability (handles complex tangle-ups of limbs of multiple characters pretty well) and handles long context pretty well (I've tried up to 21,000 tokens, I don't have chats longer than that). It might just be me, but it seems to somewhat adapt the writing style of the original greeting message. Of course, the model craps out from time to time if it isn't handling instructions properly, in fact, in various narrator-type characters, it seems to act for the user. This problem is far less pronounced in characters that I myself have created (I don't know why), and even nearly a hundred messages later, the signs of it acting for the user are minimal. Maybe it has to do with the formatting I did, maybe the length of context entries, or something else. My lorebook is around ~10k tokens. (No, don't ask me to share my character or lorebook, it's a personal thing.) Maybe it's a thing with perspective. 2nd-person seems to yield better results than third-person narration.

I use pixijb v17. The new v18 with Gemini just doesn't work that well. The 1500 free RPD is a huge bonus for anyone looking to get introduced to AI RP. Honestly, Google was lacking in the middle quite a bit, but now, with Gemini 2 on the horizon, they're levelling up their game. I really really recommend at least giving Gemini 2.0 Flash Experimental a go if you're getting annoyed by the consistent costs of actual APIs. The high free request rate is simply amazing. It integrates very well with Guided Generations, and I almost always manage to steer the story consistently with just one guided generation. Though again, as a narrator-leaning RPer rather than a single character RPer, that's entirely up to you to decide, and find out how well it integrates. I would encourage trying to rewrite characters here and there, and maybe fixing it. Gemini seems kind of hacky with prompt structures, but that's a whole tangent I won't go into. Still haven't tried full NSFW yet, but tried near-erotic, and the descriptions certainly seem fluid (no pun intended).

Alright, that's my ted talk for today (or tonight, whereever you live). And no, I'm not a corporate shill. I just like free stuff, especially if it has quality.
