Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Google is releasing an early version of Gemini 2.5 Flash, its new AI model, which has improved reasoning capabilities while maintaining speed and cost-efficiency. The model uses a hybrid reasoning approach, allowing devs to control the "thinking" process and set a thinking budget to balance quality, cost, and latency. Gemini 2.5 Flash can perform complex tasks more accurately by reasoning through thoughts before responding.
