Show context

I don't think intelligence is increasing. Arbitrary benchmarks don't reflect real world usage. Even with all the context it could possibly have, these models still miss/hallucinate things. Doesn't make them useless, but saying context is the bottleneck is incorrect.

Gemini 2.5 Pro is okay if you ask it to work on a very tiny problem. That's about it for me, the other models don't even create a convincing facsimile of reasoning.
