Google announces Gemini 4 flagship AI model after months of delays
The new 'Argon' model is larger in size than Google's previous top-tier models as it seeks to catch up with AI rivals Anthropic and OpenAI.
Alphabet's Google unveiled a new top-tier artificial intelligence model, Gemini 4, on Wednesday in an effort to compete with rivals Anthropic and OpenAI. The new Argon model is larger than Google's previous Pro models and is touted as the company's most powerful model yet, designed for complex tasks and comparable to frontier models from OpenAI and Anthropic.
Google will provide the model to select cybersecurity partners and is also participating in the Trump administration's voluntary process for pre-release model access. The company did not disclose a timeline for the model's public release.
