Google's new Gemini Pro is smarter than other AIs at reasoning, science, and coding.

This is according to a series of benchmark results posted by Google on Thursday. In short, Gemini 2.5 Pro beats chief competitors at nearly everything — though we're sure the companies behind those competitors would disagree.

According to Google's data, Gemini 2.5 Pro has a healthy lead over OpenAI o3, Claude Opus 4, Grok 3 Beta, and DeepSeek R1, in the Humanity's Last Exam benchmark, which evaluates a model's math, science, knowledge, and reasoning. It's also better at code editing (per the Aider Polyglot benchmark), and it wins over all competitors in several factuality benchmarks including FACTS Grounding, meaning it's less likely to provide factually inaccurate text.

The only benchmark in which Gemini 2.5 Pro isn't a clear winner is the mathematics-focused AIME 2025, and even there the differences between results are pretty small.

As a result of all the improvements in Gemini 2.5 Pro, this model is now on top of the LMArena leaderboard with a score of 1470.

There's a catch, though: The final version of Gemini 2.5 Pro isn't widely available yet. Google calls this latest version an "upgraded preview," with a stable version coming "in a couple of weeks." The preview should now be available in the Gemini app, though.
