Our IMO gold model is not just an "experimental reasoning" model. It is way more general purpose than anyone would have expected. This general deep think model is going to be shipped so stay tuned! 🔥
So happy to see this incredible achievement. Huge congrats to @lmthang, @quocleix, @YiTayML and the IMO team on the result. This was a great collaboration across teams to build a general Gemini DeepThink model that can also get gold at IMO.
Shipping earnings like a new Gemini model 🚀📈
1/ Q2 was a standout quarter with robust growth across the company. As we showed at I/O, we’re leading at the frontier of AI and shipping at an incredible pace. Search and YouTube saw strong revenue growth. And Cloud had another quarter of strong growth in revenues +…
Had a super fun time training this model. A big yolo run that resulted in a super strong model. Most important thing is to trust your model and give it morale support. 🦾 Was also a big eye opener to see how prep for IMO is done. Before this I knew absolutely zero about this…
Right before #imo2025, together with colleagues from Mountain View, NYC, Singapore, etc, we all gathered at @GoogleDeepMind headquarter in London for our final push for IMO. I believe that week was when all magic happened! We put all individual recipes (that we figured out…
Watching AI progress is like watching your child grow up. You don't notice the little day to day changes but all of a sudden after some period of time you look back and you become amazed and shocked by how much have changed. 😮 Every minor revision to the model, every…
Our Gemini model just won a gold medal at the IMO 2025. It’s a massive milestone for AI, and I’m so proud to have played a part. My work focused on i) Post Training the core model that was used in the IMO effort and ii) inference-time scaling, which was a significant factor in…
An advanced version of Gemini with Deep Think has officially achieved gold medal-level performance at the International Mathematical Olympiad. 🥇 It solved 5️⃣ out of 6️⃣ exceptionally difficult problems, involving algebra, combinatorics, geometry and number theory. Here’s how 🧵
My co-captain here Jonathan was very critical to the Gemini deep think IMO gold medal 😃. He is new to X so please follow him 👇
I’m excited to share the news of Gemini Deep Think’s gold-medal level performance 🥇 at the International Math Olympiad! It has been an absolute blast building Deep Think this year and then scaling it to the IMO.
Yes, there is an official marking guideline from the IMO organizers which is not available externally. Without the evaluation based on that guideline, no medal claim can be made. With one point deducted, it is a Silver, not Gold.
🚨 According to a friend, the IMO asked AI companies not to steal the spotlight from kids and to wait a week after the closing ceremony to announce results. OpenAI announced the results BEFORE the closing ceremony. According to a Coordinator on Problem 6, the one problem OpenAI…

Doing the right thing is important, even if you get penalized for it.
On-policyness is power. Walk your own trajectories and don't imitate. Such a big fan of ML wisdom for the day to day life. 😃
Becoming an RL diehard in the past year and thinking about RL for most of my waking hours inadvertently taught me an important lesson about how to live my own life. One of the big concepts in RL is that you always want to be “on-policy”: instead of mimicking other people’s…
Cooking something very cool and exciting with @quocleix in Singapore very soon. Stay tuned! 😎🇸🇬
