What do I need to know about Gemini 2.5

With all the buzz around AI, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by new tools and tech. If you’ve been wondering what’s new with Google’s Gemini model—especially version 2.5—you’re not alone.

Let’s break it down.

What Is Gemini 2.5?

Gemini 2.5 is Google’s latest AI model. While Google hasn’t always led the AI race, this new version shows they’re catching up—and fast.

“This is the newest model from Google… and it’s really good,” said Evan Connell, Consulting Manager at SOLVD.

It may not be a massive leap from previous versions, but Gemini 2.5 brings solid improvements, especially in speed and how it handles coding tasks.

Why Should You Care?

If you’re a developer—or just someone who dabbles in code—Gemini 2.5 can help you write, fix, and clean up your code.

“I’ve seen some people saying… they were able to plug the code into Gemini 2.5 Pro, and it was able to debug it instantly,” Evan Connell, Consulting Manager at SOLVD shared.

Even if you’re not a developer, tools like this are becoming easier to use. With Gemini, you can describe what you need in everyday language and get working code in return. It’s part of a trend Evan called “vibe coding.”

“People that aren’t software developers are writing some fairly cool stuff,” Evan Connell, Consulting Manager at SOLVD said.

Still, there’s a warning: if the tool breaks, it’s tough to fix unless you understand what it created. So tread carefully.

What Makes Gemini Different?

Compared to other models like ChatGPT or Claude, Gemini 2.5 excels at thoughtful problem-solving. It may not have all the user features yet, like canvases or projects, but its brainpower is impressive.

Also—at least for now—it’s free to use on Google’s AI Studio. Just be cautious with what you input.

“Google does definitely keep all of your chats and train their models on them,” Evan Connell, Consulting Manager at SOLVD noted. So don’t share any private or business-sensitive data.

So, Which AI Should You Use?

The truth is, there are a lot of models out there. Some are faster. Some think deeper. Some are better at images or writing. It’s confusing, even for pros.

“Everyone that’s ever named an AI model should be fired,” Evan Connell, Consulting Manager at SOLVD joked. “We should start over.”

But help is on the way. The next big model from OpenAI—GPT-5—is rumored to combine all the best parts into one smart assistant that just knows what you need.

Final Thoughts

Gemini 2.5 is another step toward smarter, more useful AI tools. If you’re curious about using AI for coding or productivity, it’s worth exploring—but with the usual caution.

Our clients say

From my initial call with Spencer through project implementation with John and Evan, my experience with the SOLVD team was excellent. They were quick to understand our business needs, clear when explaining the reasoning behind proposed solutions, transparent when reporting on progress and timeline, and all around enjoyable to work with. Would highly recommend and looking forward to continue working with them in the future!

SOLVD was very straight forward with everything needed to complete the project. No surprises, no issues, and cost was aligned with the estimate. They made implementation easy and quick.

Matt Benzaquen Sr Manager, Sales Strategy at Instabug

As a rule, I'm pretty stingy with my recommendations. So it's a pleasure for me to recommend Solvd as a top-flight Salesforce consultancy. Solvd recently led our company's conversion to the Lightning interface and did it on time, on budget and made it easy for me and my team. I know I'll use their services again, and am confident they can do the same for you.
