Isn't this too expensive compared to something like an air gradient which costs 140$ when you assemble it yourself? (AirGradient is also missing from the comparison table)

Response from Gemini 2.5 Pro for comparison -

``` Based on the search results, the new moon in August 2025 will occur late on Friday, August 22nd, 2025 in the Pacific Time Zone (PDT), specifically around 11:06 PM.

In other time zones, like the Eastern Time Zone (ET), this event falls early on Saturday, August 23rd, 2025 (around 2:06 AM). ```

This page seems to have formatting issues on mobile (at least on mine -- pixel 9 pro running chrome browser, worth looking into).

Your statement is not accurate based on the Workspace docs.

This post compares prices in LA: https://www.reddit.com/r/waymo/s/sU6l51A0XD. It's inline with what I mentioned above.

> Well currently Waymo is about double the price of Uber.

This is not accurate in my experience in SF. Most of the time, the price is comparable to UberX and during peak-times, the price is upto 20% higher than UberX.

The branding is very confusing, shouldn't this be Gemini Pro 1.5 since the most capable model is called Ultra 1.0?

I think the bard version is most likely a hallucination. I see the bard version from the latest update as `2023.12.06` in https://bard.google.com/updates with the title "Bard is getting its biggest upgrade yet with Gemini Pro".

I am guessing this update is not available in Europe.

> Will you use my conversations for training?

  Yes. Your conversations may be reviewed by our AI trainers to improve our systems.

I don't think this is guaranteed. They may not train ChatGPT directly on user chat sessions but the data can still be seen by OpenAI employees.
