Google has released two new models, Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking, designed to enhance near real-time reasoning for voice agents and improve the fluidity of AI conversations.
Google has released Gemini 3.8, featuring two new variants: Gemini 3.8 Flash for general reasoning and coding tasks, and Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber specialized for cybersecurity applications. Both models maintain the speed and low cost of the previous 3.7 Flash generation while delivering significant performance improvements.
Google has released Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech-to-text model designed for intelligent voice interactions that converts raw audio into accurate, polished text while handling background noise and disfluencies.
Google DeepMind has released AlphaGenome Atlas, a platform containing predictions for the effects of 9 billion single-nucleotide variants across the entire human genome. This resource aims to accelerate biological understanding by providing a comprehensive map of how genetic mutations affect molecular biology.
Google DeepMind and Google Research have introduced WeatherNext 3, an advanced global weather AI model that generates hourly forecasts at high spatial resolutions by learning directly from real-time satellite observations. This update provides forecasts roughly five times sharper than its predecessor, WeatherNext 2, enabling more localized predictions for critical weather events.
Google has launched the Fairwind Program to provide government agencies, enterprise customers, and cybersecurity partners with access to advanced AI capabilities for proactive cyber defense. The initiative aims to help defenders autonomously find and fix vulnerabilities at scale by combining the specialized reasoning of Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber with the CodeMender harness.
Google has introduced agentic video understanding for its latest Gemini models, enabling dynamic analysis that reduces token usage by up to 88% while improving accuracy by up to 7%. This capability allows the models to actively search and inspect specific video segments rather than processing frames at a fixed rate.
Google has introduced Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, a new suite of creative controls and generative video capabilities designed to make the model production-ready for professional use via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio.
Google has launched the world's first double-blind evaluation of a proprietary frontier-class AI model in partnership with the Singapore AI Safety Institute, OpenMined, AVERI, and MLCommons. The pilot tests a Gemini Flash Lite model against confidential benchmarks within a privacy-preserving environment to prevent benchmark contamination.
