Google launches Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking mode, a reasoning model similar to OpenAI o1
India TodayGoogle has unveiled a new feature in its Gemini 2.0 model, called Flash Thinking Mode. In a post, Jeff Dean, chief scientist for Google DeepMind shared that the new model is “trained to use thoughts to strengthen its reasoning.” The new model, named Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental is now accessible on Google’s AI prototyping platform, AI Studio. Given a prompt, Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental pauses before responding, considering a number of related prompts and “explaining” its reasoning along the way. Google's Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Mode vs OpenAI o1 One key difference between Google's approach and OpenAI's is that Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking reveals its reasoning process as it works, while OpenAI’s model tends to keep its thought process hidden.
