Assessing the Trustworthiness of Gemini 2.5 Pro’s Audio Analysis for Music

As someone with auditory sensitivities, finding a reliable tool for music analysis can be a game changer. Recently, I began using Gemini 2.5 Pro, a software designed to scan audio for specific sounds that I find uncomfortable, primarily crowd noise. For nearly ten years, my enjoyment of music had waned significantly due to these sensitivities, often requiring friends or family to vet songs for me during my teenage years.

I decided to put Gemini 2.5 Pro to the test by scanning three albums by Weezer. The results were intriguing: one song was flagged as potentially triggering, while the other two were deemed safe. However, I find myself in a quandary about the latter tracks. Could Gemini have delivered false positives? This concern arises given that my initial exploration relied heavily on articles and user reviews rather than direct audio analysis.

After providing the YouTube links for the songs directly to Gemini, I was informed that the audio was analyzed in real-time. This leads me to question the reliability of its findings. Just how accurate is Gemini 2.5 Pro’s analysis? Is there a possibility of false negatives, where the software fails to flag potentially distressing audio elements?

Being mindful of these doubts, I am keen to understand the software’s capabilities better. Can Gemini 2.5 Pro genuinely deliver on its promises? Insights from other users or experts in audio analysis would be greatly appreciated, as I navigate this intersection of technology and personal audio experience.
