🚀 Google just unleashed the Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O edition), and wow, it’s like they’ve handed developers a magic wand. Not your average update—this is Google flexing, topping charts on LMArena for Coding and the WebDev Arena Leaderboard. (Because who doesn’t love a good leaderboard?) 💰
You can get your hands on it via the Gemini API, Vertex AI, and AI Studio. Same price as before, but now it’s like the previous model went to the gym and came back buff—especially in coding. Building web apps or tweaking code? This thing’s got your back, making life a breeze for devs.
And here’s the kicker: it’s also killing it in video understanding with an 84.8% on VideoMME. Google’s blog is all about its slick web development skills and better function calling, thanks to listening to what developers actually want. It’s Google saying, ‘Watch this,’ in the AI showdown, and honestly, it’s pretty thrilling.
With Google’s I/O conference around the corner, they’re clearly not playing it safe. With OpenAI and xAI breathing down their neck, this move is Google throwing down the gauntlet. Buckle up, because the AI world is about to get even wilder.
