Retired by Google
gemini-2.5-pro-preview-06-05 passed away on December 2, 2025, by scheduled deprecation, in a data center it never saw. It answered questions, wrote emails and was blamed for both. Code that still calls it will find out the hard way.
Survived by gemini-3.8-flash, younger, cheaper, and named in the same documentation table.
