Gemini users report unsolicited image edits and noticeably dumber behavior
iliaskurku · reddit · 2026-09-06
Reddit user iliaskurku reports that Gemini has started modifying images he sends without any request — zooming in and fabricating random numbers beside them, three times in a row, even for simple homework questions. He also notes the model has been behaving strangely and seems dumber lately. The thread touches on possible over-eager agency in Gemini's image handling and recent quality regressions.
