Hey there, meme token enthusiasts! In the wild intersection of AI and crypto, where hype meets tech, a recent tweet from a prominent blockchain figure has sparked some intriguing discussions. Hari Krishnan, the CEO of Spearbit and Cantina.xyz, and a key contributor to Solidity (that's the go-to language for writing smart contracts on Ethereum, for those new to the scene), took to X to share his less-than-stellar experience with Google's Gemini Deep Think.
For context, Gemini Deep Think is a cutting-edge feature in Google's Gemini 2.5 AI model, rolled out earlier this month. It's designed to tackle complex problems by "thinking deeply" through extended reasoning processes, using parallel thinking and reinforcement learning techniques. Google touts it as a game-changer for problem-solving, even claiming it aced high-level math challenges like those in international Olympiads Gemini 2.5: Deep Think is now rolling out.
But according to Hari, the reality doesn't match the buzz. In his initial post, he expressed high hopes but noted that the AI bombed an Olympiad-style math problem by making an early wrong assumption and sticking to it. He followed up in the thread, saying he tried five different problems, and it failed every single one—even one that was supposedly part of its training data. "It tries its best to find an 'inductive pattern', but doesn't reason quite well," he tweeted original thread.
Replies to the thread added more nuance. One user suggested we might be dealing with a distilled, less powerful version of the AI—not the gold-medal-winning beast that crushed competitions. Hari agreed, mentioning that while it runs for a long time and gets parts right, there's always a critical error slipping through.
Now, why does this matter to us at Meme Insider? Well, AI-themed meme tokens are all the rage in the crypto space right now, riding the wave of artificial intelligence excitement. Take $GEMINI, for instance—an ERC-20 token explicitly inspired by Google's Gemini AI, aiming to fuse AI advancements with blockchain decentralization Gemini AI on Coinbase. Its mission? To bridge AI and crypto, potentially powering smarter DeFi tools or predictive analytics.
But here's the kicker: Gemini AI has been making headlines for predicting the next big crypto winners, including meme coins poised for massive gains in 2025. Articles are popping up about Gemini listing top meme picks like PENGU or Maxi Doge, shockingly leaving out classics like Dogecoin Leading AI Gemini Lists 6 Best Meme Coins of 2025. Another piece dives into Gemini AI's forecasts for 1000x cryptocurrencies this year Gemini AI Predicts the Next 1000x Cryptocurrencies in 2025.
If an AI that's supposed to excel at deep thinking can't handle basic (well, Olympiad-level) math without fumbling, how reliable are its crypto predictions? In the meme token world, where volatility is king and hype drives prices, this kind of critique from a respected crypto vet like Hari could sow seeds of doubt. Math is foundational to blockchain—think cryptography, consensus algorithms, or even valuing those wild meme coin pumps. If AI tools falter here, it might make investors think twice about pouring funds into AI-meme hybrids.
Of course, this is just one opinion, and AI tech is evolving fast. Gemini Deep Think might improve with updates, and the full-powered version could live up to the hype. But for now, it's a reminder that in both AI and meme tokens, not everything that glitters is gold—or in this case, a gold medal.
