Google DeepMind has released Gemini 2.5 Flash, described as their first fully hybrid reasoning model. The model allows developers to toggle 'thinking' (extended reasoning) on or off, combining standard and chain-of-thought inference modes in a single model. It is available to developers and represents a new architectural approach to balancing reasoning depth with inference cost.
