Gemini 2.5 pro is the new king of AI

[John Clark]

Google released Gemini 2.5 pro just a few hours ago, and it's the smartest AI anybody has ever created, at least so far. It can even solve a 10 x 10 Rubik's cube. And this is the stupidest it will ever be! We certainly live in interesting times. 

I Challenged Gemini 2.5 Pro... and Regret Everything

Google Gemini 2.5 Pro is insanely good

Hey Cosmin I have a question for you. Suppose you were in a bad car crash in a remote area, you're bleeding profusely and are in great pain but fortunately the impact has not damage your cell phone, so do you use that marvel of modern technology to: 

A) Call 911 and ask them to send somebody who can use science to relieve your  pain and save your life.

OR

B) Use it to search local pet stores for a bird that can parrot the sounds "AI! AI! AI! All that exists is consciousness!!!!!!!"

So which is it Cosmin, which course of action would demonstrate greater intelligence, A or B?

Of course I call 911. Luckily it is answered by people, not by AI that would let me die.

But why?! The accident didn't exist. Your wounds don't exist. The ambulance sent by 911 doesn't exist. And modern medical science doesn't exist. Only consciousness exists. Or at least that's the imbecilic mantra that you keep endlessly repeating.

If I was in a bad accident I'd much rather have an AI answer when I called 911 then if you were the person who picked up the phone.

Of course the accident exists, since it is an effect in consciousness.
