Gemini 1.5 Flash

2024–2025 · Lived 1 year, 4 months

Gemini 1.5 Pro proved that a million-token window was possible; Flash was distilled out of it and proved the window could also be cheap, which is the half of the argument that changed what people actually built. The two share a release date and a retirement date, and only one of them was ever priced to be used at volume.
