🤩 The Newly upgraded Gemini 2.5 Pro

Just yesterday, we gave you a rundown on all the different Gemini AI models Google’s been cooking up—what they can do, where to find them, and why they actually matter.
Well, buckle up, because Google just dropped a fresh update to its flagship Gemini 2.5 Pro model—and you know we had to circle back and let our loyal Gemini fam in on it first. 😎
The new update is called Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O edition). Yes, it’s a mouthful. But also? It’s a beast.
Here’s what makes it awesome:
Same price, smarter brain: It fully replaces the regular 2.5 Pro model and costs the same. But it’s faster, sharper, and makes way fewer “oops” moments when it comes to code execution.
Major coding upgrade: This version handles code generation, editing, and transformation like a dev who’s been living in VS Code since birth.
Built for web devs: According to Google, it’s now significantly better at building interactive and aesthetic web apps. In fact, it’s literally topping the WebDev Arena Leaderboard as well as the LMArena in Coding right now.
Video smart: Yup. It’s now rocking state-of-the-art video understanding with an 84.8% score on the VideoMME benchmark. Translation: it can watch, understand, and process video content like a total pro.
Developer feedback implemented: Google actually listened and tackled key issues like: reduced errors in function calling, better trigger rates for those same function calls, improved steerability so it follows your prompts more precisely, oh, and it’s got “a real taste for aesthetic web development” now.
And of course, you can try out the new Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (I/O edition) via: Gemini API, Vertex AI, AI Studio or just hit up the Gemini chatbot app (via web or mobile—your call)
If you’re already team Gemini, this is your upgrade moment. And if you’re not? Might be time to see what the hype’s about. 👀
Oh—and this is just the beginning.
There are still plenty more spicy AI reveals coming at Google’s upcoming I/O developer conference, so if you’re even a little AI-curious (or just love a good tech flex), staying tuned is definitely in your best interest.

👩⚕️AI in Healthcare: The Good, The Bad, and The Unregulated

AI is making waves in almost every sector, and healthcare is no exception.
But before you get too excited about using ChatGPT or some other AI chatbot to diagnose your symptoms, let's talk about how it's really going down in the health space.
Recently a Oxford study put AI chatbots to the test, and… let’s just say it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
So, what's the story?
AI chatbots like ChatGPT, powered by tools like GPT-4o, are quickly becoming the go-to resources for many people seeking quick health advice—especially with those long waiting lists and rising healthcare costs we all know too well.
In fact, one in six adults in the U.S. is already using chatbots for health-related questions regularly. But here’s the kicker: it’s not always the best idea.
The study: 1,300 people in the UK were tasked with solving health scenarios using AI chatbots like OpenAI’s GPT-4o, Cohere’s Command R+, Meta’s Llama 3, as well as their own methods. Spoiler alert: the AI didn’t exactly help them make better decisions.
At the end of the day, participants using chatbots were less likely to identify the right health condition and, even worse, they often underestimated how serious things were.
And why?
Well, turns out the issue is two-fold:
People don’t know what to tell chatbots: Not providing enough info or not knowing how to phrase the questions correctly leads to poor advice.
The chatbots are confusing: Responses were often a confusing mix of good and bad, making it hard to figure out what to trust.
And Tech companies? they’re a little too optimistic.
Companies like Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft are pushing hard to make AI a game-changer in healthcare.
Apple’s building AI tools for exercise, sleep, and diet advice, Amazon’s thinking about using AI to analyze health data, and Microsoft is working on AI to triage patient messages to care providers .
But here’s the real question: Is AI really ready for all this high-stakes health stuff?
The American Medical Association says: Nope, not yet. They’re even warning against using chatbots like ChatGPT for clinical decisions.
OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT, also advises not to rely on it for health diagnoses. In fact, Adam Mahdi, co-author of the study, says chatbots should be tested like new drugs—through real-world trials.
Bottom Line:
AI might be able to give some solid advice in a pinch, but when it comes to serious health decisions, it’s still not there. The tech is still too new, and there’s a lot of work to do before we can trust AI with our well-being.
So, while it’s fun to ask ChatGPT about your sore throat, maybe leave the life-or-death decisions to the real doctors for now.

Hi Automaters -
We've been thrilled to see all the love for our Prompt of the Day this past week. We know they add real value—sometimes as sparks of inspiration, other times as practical tools—and it’s clear they’ve become something meaningful for Automaters.
So we're doubling down: the prompts are here to stay. You’ll always have something fresh to explore, test, or play with.
And as you may have seen, we’ve been working on our AI Workout of the Day (WoD) videos to complement the prompts. Now, we’re adding daily trailers for these WoDs—so you can get a quick visual taste and see if it’s something you want to dive into.
It’s just another way to experience the prompts you already love.
Cheers,

🤖 ChatGPT Prompt Of The Day:
Polish Your Draft.
Proofreading and editing are often skipped in the rush to finish writing—but they’re essential to making your work shine. While you should never rely entirely on AI to catch every error, ChatGPT can be a powerful first pass.
It helps spot typos, flag inconsistencies, and even improve clarity—saving you time and helping you spot the stuff your brain glosses over.
Here are tips to use the Prompt effectively:
Start with a Clean Draft: Make sure your text is mostly complete—AI is better at polishing than fixing half-finished thoughts.
Mention the Purpose: Is this an article? A marketing email? An academic paper? The editing suggestions will be more useful with context.
Clearly State Goals and Audience Type: Let the AI know if you're aiming for a formal tone, conversational style, or specific audience—this affects editing decisions.
Ask for Two Passes: Request both proofreading (technical fixes like grammar and punctuation) and editing (clarity, tone, flow, etc.).
Ask for a Summary of Changes: Request a quick breakdown of what was improved—this helps you learn why changes were made and gives you more control over what to keep or tweak.
Always Do a Final Human Review: No matter how good AI gets, a human eye is still essential for nuance, tone, and voice. In conclusion let AI do the first sweep, you do the rest.
Here’s the prompt:
Proofread this text for factual accuracy, grammar, spelling, punctuation, and typographical errors.
Then, edit it for clarity, consistency of style, readability, and overall structure.
Provide a summary of the key changes made in each step, followed by the fully edited version of the text.
