Announcing Gemini 4 Carbon, our strongest model with state-of-the-art cybersecurity and long horizon capabilities.
Carbon represents a step up across most benchmarks, delivering strong frontier performance in autonomous coding and cyber defense.
We’re first making Carbon available to a subset of trusted cyber defenders in our Fairwind program. We’ll expand access as soon as possible.
Introducing Genie 4 from @GoogleDeepMind, our most realistic and interactive world model yet 🌍
Now you can use natural language to dynamically steer the world and its soundscape in real-time, whether you're changing the weather, moving the camera, or introducing new elements to the environment.
So, how does the model do that?
Behind the scenes, Gemini acts as the "brain" of the simulation. It translates your requests into actions, plans out complex events, watches the scene unfold to keep track of what's happening, and adjusts as you change the story. Genie 4 also introduces ambient audio and real-time interactive human dialogue that adapts on the fly.
Simulating the world is crucial on the road to AGI. We’re already exploring real world use cases of Genie 4 with trusted testers across filmmaking, game design, education and robotic simulation.
Early feedback has been promising, with use cases ranging from VFX pre-visualization to bringing historical moments to life using verified archives. Testers cited improved photorealism, dynamic text events, and real-time audio as the biggest leaps. See enhanced visuals in action, and hear native audio produced directly by Genie 4 in the demo below.
Genie 4 includes strict safety guardrails, and all generated audio and video is watermarked with SynthID. Coming soon to Google AI Ultra subscribers in Project Genie and early access partners in the Gemini API and @GoogleAIStudio.

Watch @GoogleDeepMind's @GeokenAI explain how Gemini 4 Argon acts as a virtual builder in @antigravity to autonomously create a stunning, multi-tiered pagoda sanctuary.
Textbook biology, brought to life right in your browser 🌿
This interactive 5-stage visual atlas built by Argon in @antigravity turns dense textbook biology into a hands-on experience. With fluid animations and scientific precision, you can scroll from a sunlit leaf all the way down to sub-cellular chloroplasts.
The model pairs accuracy with a seamless interactive design, demonstrating how to build educational tools that can make complex science visual and effortless to explore.
We’ve been exploring the potential of using Gemini 4 Argon to accelerate research @Google. One of our tests was using videos of humans performing fun tasks (game of bags, anyone?) to autonomously spin up training simulations, rather than relying entirely on manual programming.
Hear from our research team and see the results in action as our humanoid robot studies the videos, runs the simulations, and masters the game of cornhole.
Gemini 4 Argon is available:
— For developers: Build with the Gemini API paid tier and if you’re a Google AI Ultra subscriber, you can try it in @antigravity, @GoogleAIStudio, and @Android Studio.
— For enterprises: Try it in Gemini for business, the API, and @antigravity.
— For everyday users: Try it starting today in the @GeminiApp and AI Mode in Search if you’re a Google AI Ultra or Pro subscriber.
— For scientists & researchers: Apply for a chance to get access to @antigravity highest usage tier free of charge for 6 months (onboarded on a rolling basis), subject to eligibility, capacity, and selection. Applications are now open.
— For cybersecurity defenders: Apply to join the Fairwind Program to get access to Argon without cyber guardrails on a rolling basis.

It’s Friday 🎉 Here’s a look at this week’s announcements:
— SynthID.com is now available globally in English, allowing anyone to use our detector portal to easily verify if images, video, or audio files were AI-generated by Google or industry partners
— Nano Banana 2.1, featuring leaps in visual design, subject consistency, and precise spot editing that lets you change specific details without altering the whole image
— EmbeddingGemma 2, our first natively multimodal open model that unifies text, images, video, audio, and code into a single space for on-device embeddings
— @GoogleGemma 4 paired with BOTANIC-1, a specialized AI trained on plant DNA, to rapidly pinpoint the exact mutations that make crops thrive
— Gemini agent for your business, a universal cloud agent running 24/7 to get your work done
— Guided Vision in Gemini Live, offering real-time visual assistance and dynamic audio descriptions via your camera, built alongside the blind and low-vision community
Our SynthID technology lets you easily verify if an image, video, or audio file is AI-generated, and today we’re expanding access.
Now anyone can go to synthid.com to check files for a SynthID watermark — whether they were generated by us or industry partners like @OpenAI, @nvidia, Kakao, and, coming soon, @Apple.
To date, we’ve watermarked 180 billion images and videos and more than 240,000 years of audio content, regularly handling 1 million verification requests daily.
This new portal joins our built-in verification features already live in Search, @GeminiApp, and @googlechrome.
