As if 3 different preview versions of the same model is not confusing enough, the last two dates are 05-06 and 06-05. They could have held off for a day:)

Since those days are ambiguous anyway, they would have had to hold off until the 13th.

In Canada, a third of the dates we see are British, and another third are American, so it’s really confusing. Thankfully y-m-d is now a legal format and seems to be gaining ground.

06-06 is unambiguously after 05-06 regardless of date format.

they are clearly trolling OpenAI's 4o and o4 models.

Don't repeat the same mistake if you want to troll somebody.

It makes you look even more stupid.

ChatGPT itself suggests better names than that!

Engineers are surprisingly bad at naming things!

I rather like date codes as versions.

At what point will they move from Gemini 2.5 pro to Gemini 2.6 pro? I'd guess Gemini 3 will be a larger model.
