From the FAQ:

"Why doesn’t Gemini know what I said earlier in a conversation?

Gemini’s ability to hold context is purposefully limited for now. As Gemini continues to learn, its ability to hold context during longer conversations will improve."

Yeah, I saw that in the FAQ, but this was literally my second question in the convo, so not exactly a "long" conversation. Seems like it should be able to handle context for at least a couple of exchanges, right?

This is ridiculous. Context is everything with LLMs. gpt-4-32k performs better than gpt-4 exactly because of this.
