But why gemini pro? I think that gpt-4o is better.

It's more about what you're building and not why, each one is better at something i use them both but each one outperforms the other in specific tasks, btw gemini flash is faster and cheaper than gpt 4o

and also gemini gives access to 2023 data while being cheaper than gpt 3.5 not even gpt 4o as openai is still stuck in 2021 with gpt 3.5 and you have to pay a lot more per request for 2023 data
