User downgrades Google Ultra, citing Astra and Opus over Gemini

A user says they downgraded their Google Ultra subscription because Fable, Opus, and Astra are good enough that they rarely use Gemini, and complains that Gemini Pro has stayed on 3.1 for a long time.

Just downgraded my Google Ultra AI subscription. I barely ever use Gemini considering how good Fable, Opus and Astra have become. What a disappointment that Gemini Pro has been stuck on 3.1 forever. Google is in such an amazing position with their cloud infrastructure, TPUs, enterprise offerings, YouTube, Search, Android. Yet they risk botching things up with slower execution vs Anthropic/OpenAI.
