Re: "Google's Gemini AI"

It's mildly annoying that it screws up keyword searches and existing hashtags like #gemini on mastodon.

there is also

— swedish duo named gemini which produced two albums: gemini and geminism.

posts about them can be tagged with gemini too.

and if activity pub or social networks existed in eighties, they must have contained many gemini posts related to swedish pop scene.

I think it’s probably true that the protocol will probably outlast Google’s AI model… but I feel that it’s kinda like when I tell people I am part of a program called Tinder they look at me weird cuz of the dating app…

could be annoying to have to clarify to some people that the protocol has nothing to do with AI or Google

I'm going to host a gemini server that uses google gemini to generate horoscopes for geminis and accepts the gemini dollar altcoin for payment.

A little, but I'm expecting the AI bubble to burst at some point. There's also already a cryptocurrency called Gemini, though, so it might not be as big of a deal as my paranoid mind wants to believe.

👻 mediocregopher [...] · 2023-12-08 at 08:38:

(Gemini is a crypto exchange, not a currency or web3 project. But yeah, the naming conflict isn't really a big deal in practice.)

Great. Now in addition to the douche brothers' exchange* we get a douchebag ai. On the positive side, we will no longer be found by normal search engines...

🌧️ miragearchitect · 2023-12-09 at 12:48:

It would cause some concussion, but it's not like gemini was a super original name, a word rarely used or something.

I doubt it's an attack on the protocol by Google

🚀 sparcipx · 2023-12-10 at 17:14:

Sigh. This is going to make it that much harder to find posts about the Coleco Gemini now...

Google's Gemini AI — What do you all think of this? Does this naming choice have the potential to hurt the Gemini protocol? Or do you not care?
