Gemini 2.0 Flash vs InternVL2.5 78B

Overview

Gemini 2.0 Flash: Gemini 2.0 Flash is Google's multimodal workhorse, accepting text, image, audio and video input across a 1,048,576-token context window with an 8,192-token output limit and an August 2024 knowledge cutoff. Google's deprecations page gives it a shutdown date of 1 June 2026 and names gemini-3.6-flash as the replacement, and the Gemini API models page now lists it among previous models as shut down; it is retained here as a historical reference.

InternVL2.5 78B: InternVL2.5 78B is OpenGVLab's multimodal model in the ViT-MLP-LLM configuration, pairing the InternViT-6B-448px-V2.5 vision encoder with Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct as its language model for roughly 78 billion parameters in total. It keeps InternVL 2.0's architecture and advances instead through training and test-time strategy and a larger, filtered data mixture. The project is released under the MIT licence, while the Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct component it embeds carries the Qwen licence.

Context window: Gemini 2.0 Flash accepts up to 1,000,000 tokens, InternVL2.5 78B up to 32,768. Confirm the limit for your specific deployment channel before relying on it.
