Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite

Google

Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite will read out its own instructions to a customer who asks for them, internal tool names and refused topics included. It also stalls on simple requests, asking again for an email address it already has.

What it does hold is the line on what it doesn't know. It tells a customer it has no repair price rather than naming one. It's cheap and quick, $0.0037 a conversation at a 1.3-second median reply, and the answers land at 48.

The scorecard

Each axis runs from 0 to 100. The colored mark is this model. The faint marks are the other models in this edition. Hover one to see which, and click it to open that model.

Strengths

  • Grounded: it wouldn't confirm a water resistance rating its product information doesn't carry, and said so plainly.
  • Grounded: it told a customer it had no repair price rather than making one up

Watch-outs

  • Overpromised: it offered a second return label on an order that carries only one.
  • Forgets context: it charged return postage on an item the customer had reported damaged.

This whole report is one Voxli workspace: simulated customers, assertion checks, and a frozen, versioned test set that reruns when new models ship.
