Dhruv Batra joked that only two redundant projects is progress
why does google have two competing coding agents - antigravity and jules?
We're opening up the waitlist for a new version of Jules.
We're evolving Jules into an end-to-end agentic product development platform that reads your entire product context, figures out what to build next, comes up with solutions, and then ships a PR.
Join the waitlist today! Link in comments.
Many users dismissed Google's Jules agentic platform waitlist as another doomed product, citing poor cohesion, useless performance, and the company's habit of shutting things down.

@0interestrates Only 2 duplicate products is actually progress for Google.

@TheBalkanHacker @0interestrates and they are killing firebase studio too lol
@0interestrates
@0interestrates Because if there aren’t at least 3 teams working on something it’s probably not worth doing 🤪

@0interestrates Antigravity is an IDE, Jules is like a codex web type thing (runs prompts against repos in the cloud)
@0interestrates Let’s be real they will probably end up abandoning both
@0interestrates because this
@0interestrates Jules is headless I think ?
@0interestrates They had 3 if you include Gemini CLI which they killed yesterday... And was by far the best one of the lot 🤣
@0interestrates Julesv2 and agy are gonna be very different. V2 is gonna be a next leap. A new update...
@0interestrates “building the right thing is hard” and their own form is broken
like a work of art
@0interestrates company so big they probably don’t know about each other lol
@0interestrates It's Google - they'll probably kill both eventually lol
@0interestrates jules is a bit different from antigravity. It is more proactive, and I mainly use it for code review.
@0interestrates Because the inside of google is a fucking nightmare where the left hand doesn’t know what the middle hand is doing who hates the right hand, and there are 12 other hands competing with each other
Lol I mean it makes sense, I think AG2.0 is probably the preferred product as we stand, my guess is Jules is next on the chopping block. Google behaves with its projects, in a way like, McDonalds does with its franchises, not afraid to compete them against each other. Which at their size is honestly not a bad idea. This is all, pure speculation, from an outside observer mind you!
@0interestrates whichever one is better they will deprecate when they finally have a good userbase.
@0interestrates I used Jules yesterday after using antigravity primarily. Jules is a light client over Gemini and is totally useless due to low performing models behind it. The UI/UX is amateur and half baked
@0interestrates Doesn't make you want to commit to any of them, as they'll randomly kill one or both soon
@0interestrates middle mangers competing for the next bonus
