First the decleration of illegal monopoly..
and now... Google’s latest innovation: programmable overthinking.
With Gemini 2.5 Flash, you too can now set a thinking_budget—because nothing says "state-of-the-art AI" like manually capping how long it’s allowed to reason. Truly the dream: debugging a production outage at 2am wondering if your LLM didn’t answer correctly because you cheaped out on tokens. lol.
“Turn thinking off for better performance.” That’s not a model config, that’s a metaphor for Google’s entire AI strategy lately.
At this point, Gemini isn’t an AI product—it’s a latency-cost-quality compromise simulator with a text interface. Meanwhile, OpenAI and Anthropic are out here just… cooking the benchmarks
In Addition it will be interesting to extend a variation of the game that the players can use tools and execute code to take their preparation one step further.
Don't get me wrong - I don't mind to be copied on the Internet :), but I find this behavior quite rude, so I just mentioned it.
and BTW - I post an exact same spirit comment an hour ago... So I guess Today's copycat ethics aren't solely for products- but also for comment section . LOL.
It's powerfull yes, so as asking an A.I and let him sythezise all what he fed.
I guess the air is out of the ballon from the big players, since they lack of novel innovation in their latest products.
The different is that one side defend against such evil and brutal attacks, and the other side is cinicly "allow" to conduct them. For a tech-person I hope you have more critical thinking ability to spot different.
