gemini-2.5-pro given 26 days
Google sets retirement for December 1, 2026
Google's thinking model, the one that finally made people compare Gemini to the others without laughing.
gemini-2.5-pro, a Google model that answered questions, wrote emails and was blamed for both, has been given a date: December 1, 2026. That is 26 days from this edition. Until then it will keep answering, as if nothing happened.
Survived by gemini-3.8-flash (requests auto-route to it from Dec 1, 2026), younger, cheaper, and named in the same documentation table.
