Execution environment and usage
AI / software
Gemini
Where to operate
Ordinary Gemini web text chat
Getting started
- Use authorized de-identified short text, choose your own parameters and keep the original.
- Paste the prompt and fixture into ordinary Gemini web text chat without connecting services.
Setup and plan requirements
Prefer an adult personal account. Official web lists include Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Traditional Chinese. Local connections were not tested.
Prompt portability limits
Standard limits exist without a paid plan. Usage caps vary; local paid prices are unverified. No specific model or prompt count is guaranteed.
Usage limitations
Mobile/API/CLI are outside this check. No accounts are read, devices controlled, messages sent or purchases made. Do not supply secrets; activity-off chats may remain for 72 hours and receive safety processing.

適用情境 / When to use
Calculate reading rates from caption text and timestamps for human retiming. Fictional fixture: count Chinese characters only, excluding punctuation; chosen limit 4/second. S1 今天一起整理資料, 0–2s; S2 請先核對來源資料, 2–3s; S3 完成, 4–4s.
步驟 / Steps
- Use authorized de-identified short text, choose your own parameters and keep the original.
- Paste the prompt and fixture into ordinary Gemini web text chat without connecting services.
- Human check: S1 has 8 characters/2s = 4, within limit; S2 has 8/1s = 8, above limit; S3 has zero duration, an error. The threshold is only this fixture’s choice.
- Check against the human answer and source. Preserve errors; never present an expected answer as observed output.
提示詞 / Prompt
Count [caption rows] using [counting rule], calculate duration as end minus start and characters per second, then compare with [chosen limit]. Flag nonpositive duration without dividing. Preserve the original and suggest splits, not completed video edits. Do not invent a universal industry standard.
