Why is Gemini so bad at hearing?

I wonder if you all have had the same experience that I have had with Gemini. It seems like when attempting to dictate to it when using either the microphone button in the app or by using the power button shortcut, it just doesn't seem to hear anywhere near all the words that you say. Sometimes it cuts off entire sentences. It's not always, but enough to be frustrating.

I know it's not my phone because I'm dictating this with Gboard right now and it gets every single word, and generally speaking, I have no issues when on phone calls.

I like Claude's implementation because you can just talk at it like a voice note rather than trying to rush your words in before it stops listening anyway, so I hope that they implement something like that in the future. At the very least though, can't they just make the recording work well? It totally defeats the purpose of a quickly accessible assistant if you have no confidence that the assistant will hear the words you say correctly.
