Episode notes
Fast Incremental Model Iteration

- Gemini 3.1 bundles software-style improvements that will carry into future major releases.
Early Access Bias Acknowledged
- Jaden points out companies often give early access to friendly testers who may skew feedback positive.
- He acknowledges this dynamic can influence how preview benchmarks are perceived.
