What processes in our cells make use of quantum mechanics? (I mean in some sense everything is quantum mechanics, but cells are quite big in a quantum mechanics sense. I’d imagine they are mostly classical).

notamy commented on Gemini 2.0: our new AI model for the agentic era   blog.google/technology/go... · Posted by u/meetpateltech

This naming is confusing...

Anyway, I'm glad that this Google release is actually available right away! I pay for Gemini Advanced and I see "Gemini Flash 2.0" as an option in the model selector.

I've been going through Advent of Code this year, and testing each problem with each model (GPT-4o, o1, o1 Pro, Claude Sonnet, Opus, Gemini Pro 1.5). Gemini has done decent, but is probably the weakest of the bunch. It failed (unexpectedly to me) on Day 10, but when I tried Flash 2.0 it got it! So at least in that one benchmark, the new Flash 2.0 edged out Pro 1.5.

I look forward to seeing how it handles upcoming problems!

I should say: Gemini Flash didn't quite get it out of the box. It actually had a syntax error in the for loop, which caused it to fail to compile, which is an unusual failure mode for these models. Maybe it was a different version of Java or something (I'm also trying to learn Java with AoC this year...). But when I gave Flash 2.0 the compilation error, it did fix it.

For the more Java proficient, can someone explain why it may have provided this code:

     for (int[] current = queue.remove(0)) {
which was a compilation error for me? The corrected code it gave me afterwards was just

     for (int[] current : queue) { 
and with that one change the class ran and gave the right solution.

To me that reads like it was trying to accomplish something like

    int[] current;
    while((current = queue.pop()) != null) {
