Wow. Cool. I have access to that model and have also seen some impressive context extraction. It also gave a really good summary of a large code base that I dumped in. I saw somebody analyze a huge log file, but we really need something like this needle in a needlestack to help identify when models might be missing something. At the very least, this could give model developers something to analyze their proposed models.

Funnily enough I ran a 980k token log dump against Gemini Pro 1.5 yesterday to investigate an error scenario and it found a single incident of a 429 error being returned by a third-party API provider while reasoning that "based on the file provided and the information that this log file is aggregated of all instances of the service in question, it seems unlikely that a rate limit would be triggered, and additional investigation may be appropriate", and it turned out the service had implemented a block against AWS IPs, breaking a system that loads press data from said API provider, leaving the customer who was affected by it without press data -- we didn't even notice or investigate that, and Gemini just randomly mentioned it without being prompted for that.
That definitely makes it seem like it's noticing a great deal of its context window. impressive.
