Gemini 2.5 Pro is currently ranked as the top released model on the leaderboards. Google’s has more models lined up, and Nightwhisper (probably Gemini Coder) is reportedly amazing and so is Dragontail. There is a flood of new model releases from Google, OpenAI, XAI, Deepseek and others. Here we will review what has been released and what will soon be released over the next couple of months.

the unreleased google “dragontail” model is even better than gemini 2.5 pro
the ui elements/landing page design is FAR superior and it cooks on coding challenges too
