Hi everyone
Thank you for your notes I am a PM on the Gemini API. Alongside Logan Kilpatrick and Vishal Dharmadhikari, we have a lot of Googlers who really care about listening to you, responding to your feedback and taking your suggestions on board. We acknowledge that sometimes we have taken time to respond which can come across as radio silence. So going forward we will do our best to respond in a more timely manner with more context.

Over the last few months, we have been trying to get models and capabilities into developers’ hands as rapidly as possible. Our goal with our preview model launches has been to get developer feedback early and iterate until we get to a great GA candidate. Inevitably there have been learnings along the way. One such learning has been that we need to give developers sufficient heads up before we make any changes (especially on much loved models like 2.5 Pro). So going forward we commit to give developers early notice if we are switching anything. We will also be GAing both 2.5 Flash and Pro very soon. Finally we commit that along with the GAs, we will publish clear guidelines about endpoint stability on AI Studio and the Gemini Developer API.

On summaries, we have heard a lot of valid feedback. We understand this is a different experience from the raw thoughts previously available in AI Studio. Sometimes product teams have to weigh a lot of pros and cons to come to a specific decision. This is one of those times. Please work with us and help us in getting summaries to a point where they have just the right amount of detail that you need. You are our valued and needed collaborators in this. In the meantime, we will keep listening to your feedback here or DM @shresbm or @vish_owl or @OfficialLoganK on X.
