Why it matters: If you are choosing a model provider for work that will scale over the next six months, the stall in Google's Pro tier is a signal: no new Pro model since Gemini 3.1 Pro in February, though Google kept shipping Flash models. The competitive gap is real and documented by multiple sources.

Seven months without a Pro update: Bloomberg reported Gemini 3.5 Pro fell short of internal performance targets; Google says only it will ship 'as soon as it's ready'.

A YouTube tutorial demonstrating free text-to-video AI tools. The part of the description SteadyVane read does not name the tool.

Why it matters: Free text-to-video tools exist and can generate usable clips. The video promises long AI videos for free; SteadyVane did not check which tool it uses or that tool's free limits.

Free tier constraints are the product; the demo is marketing.
