🚨 New Gemini Checkpoint is testing on Arena name is same but it is carbon first output here : gave gemini mascot and told it to make a 3d video of carbon stability Logan Redemption Arc
In just the first 72 hours since Gemini 4 Argon launched, we processed ~25 trillion tokens, the demand for intelligence is incredible and still under appreciated!

Wait, but the video is clearly Claude 5.5 family coded. The sounds, the music. All the same like Claude 5.5 models! What is happening here? This is from Google??

prompted by claude lol with a huge detail on music , drops and all , i can not test arena manually wait for models to come

Carbon is almost here kek

argon is very good, counter to common complaints if you run it as agent, its extremely versatile if they make it better its great

If Carbon really comes out like this I'll have to eat my words with Google hahaha, because the mascot video with the atoms and the sound looks really good. But they've been hyping stuff in Arena for months and what reaches us is always the cheap flash version, so until I can test it myself i don't believe anything lol

Can't wait to test this in 2028 after they nerf it into the ground

Turning just the mascot into a 3D video is a fun first test for a checkpoint. If carbon keeps its shape steady through the whole clip that's already a step up
221
the 25 trillion is for the model everyone already has. the one that matters is testing under a fake name right now. that is where next month's number comes from
162
carbon already? that was fast

A 3D scene built around a fixed mascot is a good test of spatial consistency. Have you run the same prompt on the previous checkpoint?

Wow New Checkpoint☠️🔥🔥 Even though in design ui maybe still not good But we'll have to wait and see if they improve it.

Question: why do all the Opus/Fable/Gemini video animations use the same sound library for effects? I'm assuming it's a default sound library on macOs for things like white noise, tines, etc?
132
Argon isn't even a month old and Carbon's already on Arena 😅 If it really lands near Opus 5.5 for coding, my default model is about to change again... what was the prompt for that clip?
177
Yo why is this so smooth

Mascot to 3D video is a good stress test since it mixes brand consistency with motion. If Carbon keeps the mascot on-model for the whole clip, that's a bigger jump than the visuals. Did the colors hold frame to frame?
60
It still needs much improvement
246
the real test here: does the mascot look the same from every angle in the 3d video? if yes, that's a big deal for anyone making product or brand videos.

Argon didn't even get a full week as the new model 💀

Are the RSI rumours True ?

funny that it's still labeled argon in arena but it's actually carbon. Lumina's posts say it's way less lazy but 2-4x slower, curious if that holds once it's out of EAP
146
Argon, now Carbon. Someone at Google is walking backwards through the periodic table.

google teasing carbon through a checkpoint before launch is wild 🤪

will the gemini pro users get it next week? @grok estimate

25T tokens in 72 hours is about 96M tokens a second averaged out, if anyone wanted the number for that Logan quote
