Ok, gemini 1.5 is really really good.

seriously the most impressive jump i've seen in models in a while when it comes to long context

just tried with a paper and asked it 'what does Figure 5 show?'

it contextualized the whole thing and answered based on that tiny section +…

Sully I don't get why Google DeepMind and/or Google AI launched ULTRA on 8 Feb and 16 Feb BETA launch 1.5 PRO with amazing context + beats ULTRA from a week back! No wonder they have a PR Issue!

R-schedule:
PRO 1.0 k
PRO 1.5 (wow wow)
ULTRA 1.0 (wow wow wow)

What is ultra now? Pro-?

Sully Google DeepMind Google AI Or am I reading the room wrong?

I am/will paying for ULTRA... ULTRA is the top dog.
PRO is free.

Now a week later from the ULTRA is the new PRO which is better than the ULTRA from a week ago. So now I think ULTRA is a bit shit.

Why didn't they hold off until after PRO 1.5??

Mark Sully Google DeepMind Google AI Because they knew 1.5 pro would be the better model overall I guess and probably will also charge for it. 1.0 pro will still be free, I guess.

Cesar Silva Mark Sully Google DeepMind Google AI Well they said 1.5 Pro uses less GPU than 1.0 Pro so I kind of doubt they’d purely paywall it. My guess is 1.5 Pro with smaller context will be free (maybe 128k but at least 32k) and charge for larger context.
