Google has unveiled Gemini 2.5 Pro, its latest and "most intelligent" AI model to date, showcasing significant advancements in reasoning, coding proficiency, and multimodal functionalities. According to Google, these improvements come from combining a significantly enhanced base model with improved post-training techniques. The model is designed to analyze complex information, incorporate contextual nuances, and draw logical conclusions with unprecedented accuracy. Gemini 2.5 Pro is now available for Gemini Advanced users and on Google's AI Studio.

Google emphasizes the model's "thinking" capabilities, achieved through chain-of-thought reasoning, which allows it to break down complex tasks into multiple steps and reason through them before responding. This new model can handle multimodal input from text, audio, images, videos, and large datasets. Additionally, Gemini 2.5 Pro exhibits strong performance in coding tasks, surpassing Gemini 2.0 in specific benchmarks and excelling at creating visually compelling web apps and agentic code applications. The model also achieved 18.8% on Humanity’s Last Exam, demonstrating its ability to handle complex knowledge-based questions.

D-Wave Quantum Inc. has made a splash by claiming its Advantage2 annealing quantum computer achieved quantum supremacy in complex materials simulations, publishing their study in the journal Science. The company states that its system can perform simulations in minutes that would take the Frontier supercomputer nearly a million years and consume more than the world’s annual electricity consumption. According to D-Wave CEO Alan Baratz, this achievement validates quantum annealing's practical advantage and represents a major milestone in quantum computational supremacy and materials discovery.

However, D-Wave's claim has faced criticism, with researchers suggesting that classical algorithms can rival or even exceed quantum methods in these simulations. Some researchers say that they performed similar calculations on a normal laptop in just two hours. Concerns have been raised about the real-world applicability and practical benefits of D-Wave's quantum supremacy claims in computational tasks. Despite the criticisms, D-Wave is standing by the claims from the study.

D-Wave, a quantum computing firm, has asserted that its quantum computers have achieved quantum supremacy by solving a problem of scientific relevance faster than classical computers. Specifically, D-Wave Quantum Inc. claims that its annealing quantum computer outperformed the Frontier supercomputer in simulating complex magnetic materials, a feat published in the journal Science. The company stated that its system completed simulations in minutes that would take Frontier nearly a million years and consume more than the world's annual electricity consumption. The results, according to D-Wave executives, validate the practical advantage of quantum annealing and represent a significant milestone in quantum computational supremacy and materials discovery.

However, the company's claims have been met with scrutiny. Some researchers argue that classical algorithms can still rival or exceed quantum methods in certain cases. For instance, researchers at the Flatiron Institute and EPFL have suggested that classical algorithms, including belief propagation and time-dependent variational Monte Carlo methods, can match or even surpass D-Wave's results in specific scenarios. D-Wave's CEO, Alan Baratz, has responded to these criticisms, arguing that the competing studies tested only a subset of the problems addressed in D-Wave's work and that their simulations covered a broader range of lattice geometries and conditions.
