Meet the new king of AI coding: Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro I/O Edition dethrones Claude 3.7 Sonnet
One of the standout features of the update is its ability to build full, interactive web apps or simulations from a single prompt.
The company frames this move — ahead of Google’s annual I/O (input/output) developer conference later this month in Mountain View and online, May 20-21 — as a response to strong community feedback around Gemini’s practical utility in real-world code generation and interface design. On WebDev Arena Leaderboard, a third-party metric that ranks models by human preference based on their ability to generate visually appealing and functional web apps, Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview (05-06) has now overtaken Anthropic’s Claude 3.7 Sonnet at the number one spot. Demonstrations within the Gemini app showcase how users can transform visual patterns or thematic prompts into usable code, lowering the barrier to entry for design-oriented developers and teams experimenting with new ideas.
