I tested Gemini’s new Deep Research version and it’s surprisingly good

Most of the issues I had with the first version are thankfully gone.

When Google added the Deep Research option to Gemini, I tested it right away. That was back in December, and my conclusion was that it was somewhat of a hit and miss. While the feature worked well for relatively basic inquiries, in-depth research on recent and slightly more complicated topics proved challenging for it.

Recently, Google announced the new and improved Deep Research, which is now based on the Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking Experimental model. But how much has it improved, and can it now handle more complex research tasks? I tested it to find out.
