Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s time to dive into some exciting news from the world of artificial intelligence.

Google just introduced its latest innovation, Gemini 2.5, a remarkable family of AI reasoning models that takes a moment to ‘think’ before delivering answers. This groundbreaking model is set to redefine how we interact with technology.

Launching alongside Gemini 2.5 is the Pro Experimental version, which boasts a multimodal reasoning AI capability that Google claims is its most advanced model to date. You can expect this model to be rolled out on Google AI Studio as well as through its $20-a-month Gemini Advanced subscription.

The tech landscape has been buzzing since OpenAI debuted its first AI reasoning model in September 2024, prompting competitions among tech giants like Anthropic and DeepSeek to enhance their own models. The need for advanced reasoning features is growing, as these models show remarkable prowess in mathematics and coding tasks.

However, it’s worth noting that these advanced capabilities come with increased costs. Google had previously experimented with AI reasoning models and now sees Gemini 2.5 as its strongest bid to surpass OpenAI’s models.

Google is confident that Gemini 2.5 Pro will outperform its predecessors and several rival models in a variety of evaluations. It’s specifically engineered to create impressive web applications and to tackle coding challenges efficiently.

On an evaluation known as Aider Polyglot, the model scored 68.6%, leaving behind various leading AI models. Still, in another benchmarking test measuring software development skills, it scored 63.8%, slightly trailing behind Anthropic’s top performer.

One fascinating feature of Gemini 2.5 Pro is its ability to process a staggering 1 million tokens in one go, allowing it to comprehend and generate text equivalent to 750,000 words!

With all the excitement brewing, it’s anticipated that more information about the API pricing for Gemini 2.5 Pro will surface soon.
