Gemini in their interface has overly strong political correctness and safety which creates such strange responses, but if you avoid triggering that then it is pretty good.

Edit: And in your screenshot you did get real responses, you see gemini generates several look at response 2, looks like what you wanted.

I did see the other examples. But the fact is, a question about double metaphone that is 99% code should not trigger some tangent about politics.

Not once in my thousands of questions to gpt did it go so far off base. Maybe in the gpt3 days sometimes it would get caught in a repeating character loop.

Yet my fourth or so time back to Bard and it shits the bed on the first try makes me think, yeah... Still kinder surprise

Also, the suggested changes from the remaining responses are incredibly naive. It suggests pulling numbers out and appending them back in, which breaks if the numbers aren't simply at the end of the strings, as well as not going with the pronunciation spirit of metaphone.

It's so sad that we got AIs only after everybody got so sensitive about some utterances. I think the language itself was never supposed to be that serious as we are currently making it.

look forward to an LLM that can simulate talking to a mature highly knowledgable adult and not a painfully grinning corporate mannequin.
