I’m surprised at some of the toxicity percentages posted in your blog. Some are much too forgiving/optimistic. I’ve sensed the toxicity right away in some of those forums.

I largely agree.

I find that VI-Control is easily 10x more toxic than any of the other big forums. When it’s mentioned by developers and composers that I know — the word most often heard is “toxic.” Gemini is analyzing a snapshot, one moment in time and that moment might not be a period of high toxicity. But I do think it made some accurate statements about each of the forums it analyzed. It provided additional analysis beyond the chart, but I wanted to keep the information manageable. I find no other LLM does these analyses at the same level of depth of Gemini. Google’s deep index and Knowledge Graph give it an edge that no other AI has. I’ve gone deep and did prompts on various developers and individuals I know and have been amazed at how much information Gemini knows about privately owned businesses and their private situations.

Gemini isn’t going to share all the details of how it arrives at its analysis. But if this were a project where I had a PhD to work with, I would want to design it so there are a series of analyses over, say, a period of 30 or 60 days.
