And the fact that it thinks it will take 10 years to go from Linux kernel 6.18 to 7.4 when it only took 13 months to go from 5.18 to 6.4... It's off by about an order of magnitude...

Well they did have to rewrite the whole kernel in rust

From a quick check, Gemini Pro 3's cutoff date is Jan 2025, before Trixie's release in August 2025, so it could be Gemini actually did notice it should pick an unused Toy Story character.

Are you impressed now?

reply
I'd be impressed if a Debian release took less than eight months to develop, that's for sure.

The name was chosen in 2020, which you can find out from a good old fashioned google search.

So a much better explanation of this "hallucination" is that Gemini thinks all "future" Debian releases are called Trixie.

reply
No, because the name Trixie was chosen to be used back in 2020.

If you asked me after 2020 what Debian 18 would be called, I never would have said Trixie because it was known to already be set for 13.
