Student Pays $30/Month for Google AI Pro, Still Finds Gemini Unreliable and Hallucinatory

Upgrading to the $30/month Google AI Pro plan for Deep Research didn't help; the very first search still failed (video attached). They can't afford $100/month across multiple AI subscriptions and wish Gemini were more dependable.
