Gemini Advanced failed these simple coding tests that ChatGPT aced. Here's what it got wrong


Google charges $20/month for this? From WordPress plugin creation to simple coding fixes, see where Google's AI falls short.

Screenshot by David Gewirtz/ZDNETOne other note: Once I pasted in names and clicked Randomize using the Gemini-generated front-end version of the code, nothing happened. Worse, it decided to limit the numbers to two digits before the decimal point instead of after, showing it doesn't understand the concept of dollars and cents. Worse, it's the sort of failure that might not be easy for a human programmer to find, so if you trusted Gemini Advanced to give you this code and assumed it worked, you might have a raft of bug reports later.
