Try Gemini 2.5 Pro for Free Now Available to Everyone
Just when you thought the AI race couldn't get any more intense, Google has thrown another contender into the ring. Last Tuesday, they unveiled Gemini 2.5, touting it as their "most intelligent" model yet. The initial release? An experimental version of 2.5 Pro that's apparently leading the pack on numerous benchmarks, debuting at the top of LMArena with a significant lead. And if that wasn't enough, by Saturday, Google had made 2.5 Pro accessible to all Gemini users through gemini.google.com. Talk about moving fast!
Oh, and if you're an Android or iOS user, you can now snag some free Gemini Gems - just a little extra perk to sweeten the deal.
Outperforming the Competition
Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental isn't just another model; it's a powerhouse. It's outshone OpenAI's o3 mini and Anthropic's Claude 3.7 Sonnet on the Humanity's Last Exam (HLE), a benchmark designed to keep up with the rapid evolution of AI models. This test isn't your run-of-the-mill exam; it's tough, and Gemini 2.5 scored an impressive 18.8%, beating o3 mini's 14% and leaving Claude 3.7 Sonnet's 8.9% in the dust. And that's just with text problems - no images needed!
Not only that, but Gemini 2.5 is also dominating the Chatbot Arena leaderboard and showing its prowess in science, math, and coding benchmarks. While the margins might be smaller in these areas, it's still a testament to how quickly AI is advancing. Google's touting improvements in reasoning, multimodal, and agentic capabilities, all from just a single line prompt. Impressive, right?

But here's a twist - Gemini 2.5 also scored higher on an IQ test hosted by Tracking AI, which uses unique questions not found in public training data. However, don't get too excited about those IQ scores. Experts remind us that human IQ tests, with their problematic origins in eugenics, aren't the best way to gauge an AI's capabilities. After all, AI and human intelligence work in very different ways.
Available to All Gemini Users
Google's not keeping this gem to themselves. They announced on X that Gemini 2.5 Pro is now available to all Gemini users, albeit with some rate limits. Initially, it had a more limited release, but it's on its way to mobile devices soon. Gemini Advanced users, you're in luck - you get "expanded access" and a larger context window to play with.

Gemini 2.5 Proが無料公開か!GoogleのAI競争、本当に激しすぎる。実験版とはいえ最先端を走っているなら試してみたいけど、正直なところ「最も賢い」って謳い文句にはもう慣れちゃったよね。でも技術の進歩は速いから、いつの間にか日常に溶け込んでいそう。セキュリティや倫理面の懸念は残るものの、一般ユーザーが気軽に試せるのは嬉しい限り。次は何が来るのか、目が離せないわ。🤖✨
Encore un nouveau modèle ? On a à peine eu le temps de tester le précédent que déjà Google sort le Gemini 2.5 Pro gratuit. Sérieux, à ce rythme, je vais devoir changer de PC tous les mois ! 😅
Interesting move, Google! The timing feels a bit... predictable, like clockwork. 🧐 It's fascinating to see the narrative shift from 'here's our new model' to 'oh and you can try the top-performer for free'. Definitely hooks people in. But honestly, the 'most intelligent' claims always make me a tad skeptical. The proof is in the daily use, not the press release. Let's see how it handles my weird coding questions!
