Last month, I spent my Saturday afternoon trying to debug a 12,000-line Python script that kept crashing on edge cases. I needed an AI that could read the entire file in one shot, understand the logic, and suggest fixes without me having to chop it into chunks like I was back in 2019. I tried both Google Gemini 2.0 Pro and DeepSeek R2 side by side. The results weren't as clear-cut as I expected—and that's exactly what makes this comparison worth reading.
