This blog post discusses the newly released Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro experimental. We discuss the benchmarks, reactions, and capabilites.

Google has finally arrived

Some observations on the model

  • Gemini 2.5 pro is absolutely a beast in coding, perhaps the best model right now
  • They spent all the computing resources on training it on coding data and forgot to give it a distinct personality
  • Doesn’t do well on reasoning as well as Grok 3 (think) and Claude 3.7 Sonnet (thinking)
  • On par with 03-mini-high in general mathematics

If you’re a coder, you’ll absolutely love it, or else you will be fine with other frontier reasoning models (Deepseek r1, if you ask me)

    Please show me some example of C++ refactoring on a real application, not yet another ReactJS template.

    I’ve been using it and people are sleeping on it. It’s easily the best LLM on the market right now, even if you’re not using it for coding. Very good reasoning skills and it doesn’t have the issues other reasoning models do where they overthink or keep saying “but wait” and confusing its outputs.
