Introducing Gemini 4 Argon – our new frontier model. It’s built for complex workflows across coding, enterprise knowledge work, and cybersecurity defense – rolling out today to a set of trusted testers through our Fairwind Program.

Big news: Gemini 4 Argon (High) by @GoogleDeepMind just landed #1 in Text Arena with 1525 pts, and #8 in Code Arena: WebDev with 1679 pts! This release has reshaped the Text Arena Pareto frontier with a blended $8/MToken! Gemini 4 Argon (High) is now the most cost efficient model, see its placement on Pareto frontier below. In the Text Arena, Gemini 4 Argon (High) ranks #1 in Coding, Hard Prompts, Instruction Following, Longer Query, and Creative Writing. It also leads every occupational domain evaluated, with additional #1 spots in English, Non-English, Chinese, and Russian. This model is +20 points above the #2 ranked Claude Opus 4.6 (High), and a huge leap from Google’s previous release, Gemini 3.8 Flash (High) at #11! In Code Arena: WebDev, Gemini 4 Argon (High) gained +96 points from Gemini 3.8 Flash (High), and went from #29 to #8. Congrats to the @GoogleDeepMind team on this impressive frontier release!

Half a million downloads in a month. Today, our open source family takes another step forward. Thank you for the incredible support behind our first-generation models. We’re excited to introduce TwIL-LM3-Pro. At just 3.6 billion parameters, it brings powerful reasoning to everyday computers, with quantized builds that run locally. No cloud required. In our evaluation: Formal logic: Highest recorded headline score among the small models compared—beating China’s VibeThinker-3B by 35% and Qwen3.5-4B by 24%, and Liquid AI’s LFM2.5-8B-A1B by 47%. Broader reasoning: 95% on SVAMP and 64.1% on MuSR, the highest recorded scores among the small models compared. BIG-Bench Hard’s logic subset: 95.4%, compared with VibeThinker-3B’s 61.1%. We believe AI is entering a post-training era. The advantage will increasingly belong to companies with the best pipelines and those that can produce capable, personalized intelligence faster and more efficiently, then put it on devices people already own. That’s what we’re building at webAI. And we’re only beginning to share what’s coming out of our lab. Coming soon: Meridian, our family of frontier-class models built to run on device. Our most advanced models will be available through the @thewebAI application. Join the waitlist as we expand access. Proudly built in Austin, Texas. 🇺🇸

Lots of discussion out there about our next model(!), so I wanted to give an early look as soon as possible. Introducing Gemini 4 Argon! It shows frontier performance in complex workflows, cyber defense and software engineering. Teams are using it extensively at Google, from coding to quantum computing, great feedback. Here’s a look at the benchmarks:

MASSIVE reveal from Google. Its new flagship, Gemini 4 Argon, outscores GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5 on most benchmarks. - beats GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5 on some super important industry benchmarks. - its widest lead in legal work, 19.6% on Harvey's Legal Agent Benchmark against 6.7% for Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.1. - output limit jumps from 64K to 1M tokens, an industry-leading ceiling, - Only 3 groups have it today. the first is Google's own staff, vetted cyber defenders such as government agencies and security companies and trusted testers giving Google feedback. - Inside Google, Argon agents freed over 300 TiB of data-center memory, with 500 TiB to 1 PiB of total savings estimated, and made a Rust port of the libgav1 video decoder 2.7x faster by replacing 32K lines of SIMD code.

We built a new way to train contextual embedding models, which encode each chunk of a document with the whole document in view. pplx-embed-v2-context-9b-preview sets a new state of the art on ConTEB and @turbopuffer's new, privately held context-bench. https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/contextual-embedding-beyond-the-gold-passage

Introducing Boreal-H3 — a video model built for ads and our next step toward recursive self-improvement in video generation. A good-looking video isn’t enough. The product has to stay the same. The actor has to stay the same. The label has to be right. And the action in the brief actually has to happen. So we post-trained MiniMax H3 specifically for advertising. But this isn’t a one-off SFT or LoRA fine-tune. We built a closed-loop system that learns what to improve next. Human-calibrated evaluation diagnoses failures and guides the next intervention: targeted data collection, reinforcement learning, or inference optimization. When the feedback is unreliable, we revise the evaluator or reward—not just the generator. Every experiment feeds into shared memory, informing the next training decision. The model improves, and so does the process that produces its successor. The results: → 85.3% reference fidelity — highest among the frontier video generation models we evaluated → Brief success: 28% → 50% → Identity match: 83% → 94% → Visible defects per clip: down 70% → Generation time and estimated cost: down 20% Boreal-H3 doesn’t just make better-looking video. It makes more usable ads. Credit to the @MiniMax_AI team for the foundation we’re building on. This launch is a checkpoint, not the finish line. We’re building more than a better video model. We’re building a system that learns how to make the next one better.

GPT-6.1 Sol: near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price. It’s the most cost-efficient model for its performance available today.
