Google Unveils Gemini 2.5 Pro: AI's New Frontier

Google has unveiled its latest AI model, Gemini 2.5 Pro, with integrated chain-of-thought processing. Praised by Prof. Ethan Mollick, it's considered more advanced than previous models. Meanwhile, Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke announced the company's hiring strategy, focusing on roles AI can't handle.

Gemini 2.5 Pro, released around the end of September 2025 at Google's I/O developer conference, boasts built-in chain-of-thought reasoning. Prof. Mollick commended its capabilities, stating it's more advanced than other released AI models. Google claims post-training enhancements have boosted its performance beyond the base model.

AI's rapid evolution makes it challenging to keep up with the latest developments. It's redefining jobs and tasks, with some roles being absorbed or redefined, and others becoming within reach for machines. Shopify's CEO, Tobi Lütke, emphasized the importance of AI adoption and learning AI skills for all employees. However, AI can enhance productivity but may still lack the human touch required for certain tasks. OpenAI's recent release of GPT-4, offering free image generation capabilities, further demonstrates AI's expanding potential.

Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro, with its advanced capabilities, signals a new era in AI development. Meanwhile, Shopify's hiring strategy reflects the changing job market due to AI's increasing role. As AI evolves, companies must adapt, embracing AI skills and understanding its limitations.
