5.6 Sol was confident that I had a mite problem, as evidenced by the yellow spots on the leaves. I flipped over the leaves and saw a few small bugs, and relayed this to 5.6 who said that they can be difficult to see since they are so small. The remedy was to blast the underside of all the leaves to wash off all the mites, which I diligently did.

However afterwards, still feeling odd that I didn't see many bugs, I double checked with Gemini who is my typical standby for vision tasks. Gemini pointed out that its actually the fungus Corynespora cassiicola...which spreads by water splashing, and can live in your bed for years once it gets into the soil.

So now having two answers I need to research and check myself, and sure enough, it was obvious match for the fungus and didn't look much at all like the mite damage.

There is another story a few days later of 5.6 looking at my heatpump install and telling me it was probably borked and to call an expert. Gemini told me to just open a valve and it was good.

I don't really trust any other LLM besides gemini for vision stuff. It also tracks as google is the only lab still pursuing vision related tasks.
