This was published the day before Gemini 2.5 was released. I'd be interested if they see any difference with that model. Anecdotally, that is the first model that really made me go wow and made a big difference for my productivity.
There's somehow this belief that "newer models will disprove <insert LLM criticism here>" despite the "newer" models being... just a scaled-up version of a previous model, or some anciliary features tacked on. An LLM is an LLM is an LLM: I'll believe it when I see otherwise.
