Great to see high quality benchmarks with headroom and look at that cost line for Carbon🚀

Q3 is in the books! We’re now on a half-trillion annual revenue run rate, with Alphabet revenues growing at 25%.
- Our AI investments are driving overall Search query growth, including commercial queries - our YoY query growth rate is the highest it’s been in the last five years.
- Google Cloud revenue grew 103%, powered by extraordinary demand for our AI infrastructure and AI solutions. Our 1P model APIs now process nearly 32B tokens/min (up 40% QoQ).
- Strong momentum in model progress with Argon and Carbon leading the frontier, and Genie 4 our most advanced new world model yet.
Thanks to our partners and employees around the world. More to share on the call soon!

$GOOGL comes out on top. Best performing and not most expensive model for agentic tasks. 👏🏻
🚨🚨 Google is back at the top of the agentic PINNACLE leaderboard! 🚨🚨
Gemini 4 Argon leads Signal65 PINNACLE (pinnacle.signal65.com) at its default effort, and at Google's standard $4/$20 rate a correct task costs $0.87, below the $1.08 and $1.51 of the two models it passed.
➡️ 13% fewer weighted errors than Claude Sonnet 5.5 at max effort and 35% fewer than GPT-6 Astra at max in our testing, with 100% of the multi-step enterprise jobs finished and 98.9% on the 128K retrieval corpus
➡️ 14 median rounds per job and 10,549 output tokens per correct answer, against 29 and 63,020 for Sonnet 5.5 max, which is why a job costs less on Argon at twice Sonnet's input rate
➡️ The top of the board has moved up 53% since September 5th and the price of a correct task on it is 43% lower
We priced @GoogleAI Argon at the standard rate on purpose. Google's $2/$10 promotion runs through November 30th and would read 43 cents; the number that maintains through December is the one on the board.

Great to be with 700+ @googlecloud customers at the historic NASA Hangar One for Gemini at Work!
Today, we introduced the new Gemini agent, a single, universal agent for work that has all of your business context and answers your questions, handles your knowledge work, creates your images and media, and writes and runs code - all from a single prompt box. It is connected to your personal workflows, your systems of record, and your enterprise controls.
It’s built around a few core architectural principles:
Unified Agent: Gemini can answer questions, do knowledge work and generate code from a single prompt box.
Access: Gemini is web-based and can be accessed from any device and integrated into third-party applications. It can also operate without a dedicated user interface.
Persistent Execution: It runs in the cloud, which means it maintains a single set of memories, context and one personalization graph no matter where you access it.
Multi-Agent Orchestration: Gemini can create sub-agents to tackle multi-step tasks and can also act as a coworker agent with a defined role and its own dedicated identity
Context: Gemini knows your tools, data, and work history and learns how you work the more you use it.
Model Choice Flexibility: It orchestrates across multiple models to deliver optimal quality and lower your costs.

As AI scales, billions of agents, devices and people will act on intelligence in real time. With @googlecloud, we’re building secure networks to move intelligence faster. Finland is helping power that future and we're proud to connect it to the world.

A tribute to Alan Knight…
A #Pompey legend, on and off the field.
Surrounded by those he loved until the end.
Respected and remembered forever.

Our Flash models are workhorses that offer performance at a great price. So, we're shipping updates fast to get them in developers’ hands. And now just 3 weeks after launching 3.6 Flash, 3.7 Flash shows significant gains including in coding and agentic work.
It delivers substantial improvements across software engineering, knowledge work, and web development, all with an introductory price at half the original cost of 3.6 Flash.
We've gotten positive feedback from early users, including our own engineers using 3.7 in @Antigravity, and we’re excited for you to try it there. Also available via Gemini API in @GoogleAIStudio, Gemini Enterprise & more, full list and details here: blog.google/innovation-and-a…

In this Backyard, it’s “win or go home,” and this crew hasn’t left since the 90's.
Where there’s a pitch, there’s a legend.
