User flags bizarre off-the-rails session from 'Gemini Flash 3.8' on a routine repo-sync prompt

PMinervini · x · 2026-09-20

A user shared a session where a routine "sync all my repos" prompt sent "Gemini Flash 3.8" completely off the rails, joking that the model "needs therapy" and noting nothing on their machine should explain the behavior. Full session screenshots included.

Note: the "Flash 3.8" name is unverified — possibly an internal test build or a mistake.
