A panel of LLMs: using Gemini and Claude to pressure-test decisions
TL;DR One model = one blind spot. Claude and Gemini were trained on different datasets, have different architectures, and will miss different things. Consult for breadth, not consensus. The goal is to widen your analysis surface and catch blindspots, not to reach agreement. If all three models agree, that’s suspicious—run stress tests. The bridge is simple: Playwright drives a logged-in Gemini tab via Chrome DevTools Protocol, pastes your prompt, and scrapes the response when done. Real session, no API key. Two modes: (1) cold second-opinion—hand off a problem and ask for an independent take; (2) adversarial debate—assign sides, force defense, then reconcile. Both work; adversarial is brutal and useful for high-stakes calls. Anchoring is the trap. If you show Model B what Model A said and ask “do you agree?”, you get theater. Always pose cold or ask for the opposite argument first. Every Model Has Its Blind Spot I make the same mistakes in code as everyone else. My reasoning hits walls. I miss architectural gotchas and cut corners on testing. An LLM does the same, just in different places. ...
