A new Gemini 4 Pro checkpoint dropped and it is just another time waste. If Google doesn’t bring back Ultra (large sized models vs current medium sized Pro models) it’s already over for them. Keep in mind that all Google releases are already nerfed on Day 1.
New Gemini 4 Pro checkpoint w/ extended thinking on
Expected more but this seems all DeepMind can do. Gemini 4 prepped for release in weeks (seen internally). Vs Opus 5.5 it's a gnat but isn't the Gemini 4 to wait for. Release version may be better/worse
