Claude got the third badge, tying its current best number of badges in under 6000 steps! And just from watching it play, it really can't be understated how much this specific model improved on spatial understanding (go AROUND the wall) and on taking and following useful notes on where things are.

...However, Gem 3 has completely stalled on one specific puzzle in the game. Not an ice or boulder puzzle, but rather the Goldenrod underground switch puzzle that frankly has insane mechanics that are unfair even for a human:
pokemow.com/Gen2/Shutter...
(that said, it did miss noticing an NPC hint)

Meanwhile, Gemini 3 has been absolutely breezing through Crystal, because its somewhat more powerful harness was designed to make the game barely possible for Gemini 2.5. Gemini 3 is *way* smarter AND has the game walkthrough memorized, making most of the game easy...

That said, it was helped by a change to the harness where floor tiles that are behind a wall are marked with a unique colour, on top of the existing two for walls/floors.
There's also these changes designed for Rocket hideout - past Claude models were not given this, making any comparisons unfair.

There's a second effect here too: "making excuses" is ALWAYS a moderately high probability response, whereas an actual useful answer is more difficult to predict with confidence.
(This is also why models will sometimes say things are against their rules that aren't.)

Surely it's impossible to train a model without examples of "not spam", although I suppose restricting themselves to specifically the examples that people flag as false detections is enough.

Very precise wording on their part of "we do not use your Gmail content *for training our Gemini AI model*" since spamfilters are themselves AI models that have been trained on your emails for decades

In combination with the "surf down" glitch, this can be used to skip most of the bottom floor of the dungeon in R/G, if you wanted to do that for some reason. ignore the weird translation patch
