Google just launched Gemini 2.5 Pro, its latest experimental AI model, and itโs already making big claims. Itโs available now for Gemini Advanced subscribers and developers on Google AI Studio, with support for Vertex AI coming soon. Google says itโs smarter, faster, and better at reasoning than anything else out there, topping the LMArena leaderboard with a score of 18.8%. That puts it ahead of heavyweights like OpenAIโs GPT-4.5 and Deepseek.
Gemini 2.5 Pro is Googleโs โmost intelligent AI modelโ yet
The big upgrade with Gemini 2.5 Pro is that it actually โthinksโ before responding. It uses a chain-of-thought reasoning approach, breaking problems down step by step to improve accuracy. Google says it excels in complex subjects like math and science, scoring high on benchmarks like GPQA and AIME 2025. It also performed well on Humanityโs Last Exam, a test designed to challenge AI on advanced reasoning and knowledge.
On top of that, this model is also strong in coding. Google claims it can generate, edit, and transform code effectively. In one test, it scored 63.8% on SWE-Bench Verified, a benchmark for AI-assisted software engineering.
How can you try Gemini 2.5 Pro?
If youโre subscribed to Gemini Advanced, you can start using Gemini 2.5 Pro right now โ at no extra cost. For those needing it at scale, pricing details are coming soon. It currently supports a one-million-token context window, with a two-million expansion on the way. Plus, itโs fully multimodal, meaning it can process and analyze text, images, audio, video, and even entire code repositories.
This launch is part of Googleโs push to integrate AI into more of its products. Gemini is already in Google Maps, allowing users to chat for navigation help. With AI competition heating up, Google is moving fast. Or Maybe even too fast. Gemini 2.5 Pro looks promising, but as always, the real test is whether it actually delivers in everyday use.
