Title: Google's Gemini 2.5 Models Gain "Deep Think" Reasoning

Link: https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/05/20/1915...

Google today unveiled significant upgrades to its Gemini 2.5 AI models,
introducing an experimental "Deep Think" reasoning mode for 2.5 Pro that
allows the model to consider multiple hypotheses before responding. The new
capability has achieved impressive results on complex benchmarks, scoring
highly on the 2025 USA Mathematical Olympiad and leading on LiveCodeBench, a
competition-level coding benchmark. Gemini 2.5 Pro also tops the WebDev Arena
leaderboard with an ELO score of 1420. "Based on Google's experience with
AlphaGo, AI model responses improve when they're given more time to think,"
said Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind. The enhanced Gemini 2.5 Flash,
Google's efficiency-focused model, has improved across reasoning,
multimodality, and code benchmarks while using 20-30% fewer tokens. Both
models now feature native audio capabilities with support for 24+ languages,
thought summaries, and "thinking budgets" that let developers control token
usage. Gemini 2.5 Flash is currently available in preview with general
availability expected in early June, while Deep Think remains limited to
trusted testers during safety evaluations.
