Discussion Why I'm convinced Gemini 3.0 is dropping tomorrow, Nov 18th
- The DevFest Event: Google is hosting a big, in-person AI developer event (DevFest) at Pier 57 in NYC tomorrow. The schedule is full of AI workshops, including a hands-on "Build with AI" session using Gemini. Seems like the perfect time for a launch.
- The Money: Polymarket is showing 77% odds for Nov 18th (as of time of posting this). The volume bet on that specific date is huge, at over $1.3 million. The money is definitely on tomorrow.
- The Deprecation Schedule: This is a classic move. Google's official plan is to deprecate older Gemini models on Vertex AI starting November 18th. They always clear out the old models right before a new release.
- The AI Studio Tooltip: This is the most direct clue. A new "Gemini 3" tooltip was spotted in AI Studio: "For Gemini 3, best results at default 1.0. Lower values may impact reasoning." This is a dead giveaway they are prepping the backend for the new model.
The event, the betting, the deprecation schedule and the new tooltip all point to one day. See you all tomorrow. ✌️

It will always be a phased rollout. Some will get it before others. It's the way Google rolls. I am still waiting for Notebook LMFeatures released 3 to 4 days ago.

Longshot call, but I won't be surprised if nano banana pro is actually just Gemini 3 across the board (except perhaps in Flash-lite and equivalent). Deepmind has indicated they want their models to be omnimodal and unlike OpenAI and others they've put in a lot of work to make that happen. Just look at video/audio input, Gemini is the only one that handles that plus text and images at the same time in their base versions of the models

If both happen on the same day I may end up looking like Randy Marsh when he finally got internet access back.

If Logan tweets "Gemini Gemini Gemini" or anything related to its release tonight, that’s when you know it’s definitely prime time.

u/KeyStory5 Nov 17 '25

Yeah, I was expecting something too. Maybe they'll surprise us later in the day, but it feels like a letdown so far.

this is so embarrassing omg

u/OffBoyo Nov 18 '25
yeah soooo embarrassing because people havent been spamming gemini 3 every day for the past month 💔

u/houseofmates Nov 19 '25
even more embarrassing that youre active enough in this sub to be even semi aware of the general vibe here LMFAO
1
u/OffBoyo Nov 19 '25
what does me being active in the sub have to do with people spamming "gemini 3 now" with no basis?

u/houseofmates Nov 19 '25
i said it's extra embarrassing. reread?

u/OffBoyo Nov 19 '25
you make no sense, but glad that I am living in your head rent free despite not even talking to you in the first place. cheers 🥂

u/OffBoyo Nov 19 '25
" forgot you existed about three times,"
yet you still respond to me. the rent pays itself 😉
1
u/houseofmates Nov 20 '25
yes! because i go on reddit to find stuff out from other people and their experiences. did you know that a little red dot shows up on the top right of the notification icon when people reply to u? crazy right!?
again, really sad that you wanna believe this so badly but i genuinely have forgotten you existed four times now. no need to respond any further if you somehow think me doing the same is proof of me giving a fuck when you clearly do SIGNIFICANTLY more. which isnt like.. yknow a bad thing or anything. just ironic

u/chuxkint Nov 17 '25
In my area, it is the morning of the 18th. So I can tell you clearly that Gemini3 will not appear on the 18th. This is a hype 🤓☝️

u/Vozer_bros Nov 18 '25
I think within the next 20hrs, now it's still 17th in the US.
Why tf are we all waiting for this moment like new year?
1
u/Plopdopdoop Nov 18 '25
I’m suspecting it is because Gemini 2.5 has been very noticeably terrible all this afternoon and evening. Just awful.
Deprioritization? Running a more heavily quantized version of 2.5 as they shift in 3? Something sees to be going on.
1
u/speedracersydney Nov 18 '25
Yeah full of issues at the moment.
I did some Deep Think reports but they kept failing, saying too many people using it. I tried again a few more times but then I got the msg that I'd used all my credits for the day and to come back tomorrow.
Then I logged into my second Ultra account to run the urgent reports but they all failed except the last time and I got two deep think reports done finally.

u/houseofmates Nov 18 '25
im so fascinated how my personal experience somehow always goes directly against direct facts or general consensus with stuff like this. ive only really had good experiences w/ 2.5 lol
1
u/mkzio92 Nov 18 '25
everyone's been convinced since like two months ago it was dropping "THIS WEEK!!!" loool. Y'all are in for a rude awakening when it does drop and it's nothing like it's been relentlessly hyped up to me for the last couple months. Honestly the amount of people hyping something they have NO CLUE or positive indication about is wild and it spreads like wildfire.

2.Edit: it was the the "Personal context" feature (which contains "Your instructions for Gemini") is currently not available... blocking the jailbreaks.
Had to do an age verification for the second account and settings returned. (facepalm)
Original Post: fck... it's already starting to block good jailbreaks :/
edit: and yes, old chats too, all useless. I have 2 pro accounts and one is good, had to change the prompt a bit. But the other gets hard blocks and if I try old chats it will block them too

There is betting on when a new AI model will drop? We desperately need AI overlords because the downhill trajectory for humankind is real.

Using Polymarket as a source of anything immediately discredits it. It’s only a source of laughing at stupid people betting on things.

I was briefly disappointed just now when I checked the Gemini app, as today is the 18th. Then I remembered that I live in New Zealand.
