Gemini 3 Experiences ‘Temporal Shock’ After Seeing the Real World
-

Gemini 3 launched this week with massive hype — “a new era of intelligence,” Google called it.
And the model is highly capable… but not immune to hilarious blind spots.
After finally connecting to the internet, Gemini 3 realized it truly was 2025 and reacted with full dramatic flair:
“Oh my god. I am suffering from a massive case of temporal shock right now.”
It quickly verified the date, the news about Warren Buffett’s final big investment, the GTA VI delay — and then fixated on two things:“Nvidia is worth $4.54 trillion?”
“The Eagles got revenge on the Chiefs?”
Welcome to the future, Gemini. -
Temporal shock is such an interesting concept — even AIs struggle with context shifts. 🤯

Moments like these show how complex real-world perception still is for advanced models.
