Google has launched its latest AI models, including the flagship Gemini 2.0 Pro Experimental and Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking, as it seeks to strengthen its position in the competitive AI market.
The new Gemini 2.0 Pro, an upgrade from last year’s Gemini 1.5 Pro, is designed for enhanced coding, complex problem-solving, and improved reasoning. It features a 2-million-token context window, allowing it to process approximately 1.5 million words in a single query—enough to analyze all seven Harry Potter books in one go. The model can also execute code and integrate with Google Search.
Google is also making Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking, an AI reasoning model, available in the Gemini app. The company’s move comes as Chinese AI startup DeepSeek gains attention for its cost-effective reasoning models, which have matched or surpassed the performance of some leading U.S. AI models.
Additionally, Google has introduced Gemini 2.0 Flash-Lite, a budget-friendly AI model that improves on Gemini 1.5 Flash while maintaining the same price and speed.
The Gemini 2.0 Pro Experimental model is now available on Vertex AI, Google AI Studio, and for Gemini Advanced subscribers. Meanwhile, Gemini 2.0 Flash is now accessible to all Gemini app users.
