FULL STORY ======================================================================Salesfor ce CEO Marc Benioff has abruptly ditched ChatGPT for Google Gemini 3 He made the switch after trying Gemini 3 for just two hours Benioff praised Gemini 3s speed, reasoning, and multimodal capabilities as a major leap forward Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has fallen head over heels for Gemini 3 and has publicly dumped ChatGPT in the process. His announcement left much of the AI world reeling. After just two hours playing with Gemini 3, a top enterprise software leader disavowed the most popular AI chatbot in favor of its rapidly ascending rival. Holy shit. Ive used ChatGPT every day for 3 years. Just spent 2 hours on Gemini 3. Im not going back. The leap is insane reasoning, speed, images, video everything is sharper and faster. It feels like the world just changed, again. https://t.co/HruXhc16Mq November 23, 2025 The post wasnt subtle. It wasnt hedged with polite comparisons or neutral optimism. Not only has one of the most visible enterprise figures in Silicon Valley crossed from OpenAI to Google, but he's also made a point of telling the world. Gemini 3 has attracted plenty of other accolades for its blending of Google DeepMinds latest advances into a single unified architecture. Gemini 3 supports text, images, code , audio, and video in one interface. Gemini 3 is well-positioned to take ChatGPT's crown for go-to AI chatbot in many ways. Though ChatGPT's ubiquity made it feel inevitable, Benioffs post suggests that inevitability has an expiration date. In a matter of hours, one of its most prominent evangelists defected. That says more about the pace of AI evolution than any leaderboard or benchmark can. AI rivalry heating up Benioff isnt just some casual early adopter. Salesforce has deeply integrated AI into its products and business strategy. It was among the first enterprise giants to partner with OpenAI for productivity tools embedded in customer relationship software. When Benioff makes a personal leap like this, it carries the weight of corporate alignment. And if Gemini 3 is now the model he's defaulting to, the software stacks around him may follow suit. Gemini 3s strengths seem to match what high-frequency users like Benioff look for in terms of speed, reasoning, and flexibility. Google has been clear that Gemini 3 was built to function as a flexible engine for both consumers and developers, able to power everything from helpdesk bots to video editing suggestions. That breadth may be what tipped the scales for Benioff, whose day likely involves toggling between datasets, dashboards, and vision decks at Silicon Valley warp speed. It's a good reminder that the AI landscape is getting more competitive. Theres a growing chorus of contenders scrambling to make your AI assistant. For people who casually check in with ChatGPT every so often, nothing has to change overnight. But Benioffs public conversion offers a peek into how quickly even entrenched preferences can give way to the promise of sharper tools.
