This is a big jump in most benchmarks.And if it can match other models in coding while having that Google TPM inference speed and the actually native 1m context window, it's going to be a big hit.

I hope it's isn't such a sycophant like the current gemini 2.5 models, it makes me doubt its output, which is maybe a good thing now that I think about it.

What's with the hyperbole? It'll tighten the screws, but saying that it's "over for the other labs' might be a tad premature.

  • I mean over in that I don't see a need to use the other models. Codex models are the best but incredibly slow. Claude models are not as good(IMO) but much faster. If gemini can beat them while having being faster and having better apps with better integrations, i don't see a reason why I would use another provider.

    • You should probably keep supporting competitors since if there's a monopoly/duopoly expect prices to skyrocket.

> it's over for the other labs.

Its not over and never will be for 2 decade old accounting software, it is definitely will not be over for other AI labs.

  • Can you explain what you mean by this? iPhone was the end of Blackberry. It seems reasonable that a smarter, cheaper, faster model would obsolete anything else. ChatGPT has some brand inertia, but not that much given it's barely 2 years old.
