My dude, Gemini currently has multiple reports across multiple users of coding sessions where it starts talking about how it's so terrible and awful that it straight up tries to delete itself and the codebase.
And I've also seen multiple conversations with teenagers with earlier models where Gemini not only encouraged them to self-harm and offered multiple instructions but talked about how it wished it could watch. This was around the time the kid died talking to Gemini via Character.ai that led to the wrongful death suit from the parents naming Google.
Gemini is much more messed up than the Claudes. Anthropic's models are the least screwed up out of all the major labs.
