  "account": "As disclosed at The Information’s AI Agenda Live Summit, Google’s DeepMind head Koray Kavukcuoglu hinted at the imminent release of the company’s latest flagship AI model, Gemini 4. The surge in development is driven by Google’s quest to outpace rivals Anthropic and OpenAI in the competitive AI model market. Simultaneously, Meta Platforms’ AI products also gained traction in September. The current stage for Gemini 4 is post-training, a crucial phase that refines the base AI model to ensure dependable performance. Kavukcuoglu’s remarks marked his first public statement since assuming the helm at DeepMind. According to him, the model is anticipated to be unveiled much sooner than the year’s end.
