Notes on Gemini 2.5 Pro: The new coding SOTA

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. - It 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 love it, or else you will be fine with other frontier reasoning models (Deepseek r1, if you ask me)
