Gemini 3.7 Flash hands-on: blazing fast even in reasoning mode, still average at engineering
repligate · x · 2026-08-19
A hands-on take on Gemini 3.7 Flash: it's crazy fast, even in reasoning mode, and better at conveying information than Sonnet and Opus, easier to interact with, and super thorough.
The weakness is engineering a codebase — still average, as it loses goals, boundaries, and contracts fairly quickly.
