Screenshot shows Gemini UI set to Pro High while the model itself says it's 3.8 Flash

A Reddit post titled 'Now it makes perfect sense' shares a Gemini chat screenshot: with the UI set to Pro High, the model states 'you are currently talking to: Gemini 3.8 Flash' and claims Google deprecated 3.5 Flash and 3.7 Flash this week (October 2026) to transition traffic.
The model also confidently recounts version history (3.1 Pro alive, 3 Pro Preview shut down March 2026), but the mismatch between the UI tier and the model's self-identification raises questions about what Gemini's web tiers actually route to.
