What happened?

I told Gemini 3 Pro to do a simple bug fix and it started going crazy in a loop, responding with the following (this is in Spanish):

<img width="2952" height="1690" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/44e8e054-9a60-4fbc-9217-112728308a97" />

What did you expect to happen?

It works and responds well, but it went crazy.

TL;DR

The issue might be resolved by checking the input or parameters provided to Gemini 3 Pro for the bug fix task, as the loop suggests an infinite or recursive operation.

Guidance

  • Review the specific bug fix task given to Gemini 3 Pro to ensure it does not contain any recursive or looping logic that could cause the observed behavior.
  • Verify the version of Gemini 3 Pro (0.39.1) is the latest or if there are any known issues with this version that could be contributing to the problem.
  • Consider resetting or reinitializing the task or session with Gemini 3 Pro to see if the issue persists.
  • If the issue continues, attempt to replicate it with a simplified task to isolate the cause.

Notes

The provided information does not include the exact task or input given to Gemini 3 Pro, which is crucial for diagnosing the issue accurately. The Spanish response from Gemini 3 Pro is also not translated, which could contain valuable error messages or clues.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the lack of specific details about the task and the response from Gemini 3 Pro, the best course of action is to try and isolate the issue by simplifying the task or checking for any known issues with the current version of Gemini 3 Pro.
