Google DeepMind Achieves Gold-Level Math Olympiad Performance, Matching OpenAI

The Gemini Deep Think AI model’s result in the International Mathematical Olympiad represents a huge leap in math capabilities. Find out why.

Google DeepMind’s latest Gemini Deep Think artificial intelligence model has achieved gold-medal level performance in the International Mathematical Olympiad.

The IMO is known as the most prestigious and challenging mathematics competition for high school students in the world. Only about 10% of this year’s competitors received gold medals, and numerous Fields Medalists have won it in the past.

Various AI companies tried out the IMO 2025 questions on their models, hoping to get top scores and impress the brightest researchers, who likely have a background in competitive mathematics. Unfortunately for Google, its gold-medal result matched that of its rival OpenAI – both models solved five out of ...
