Google today announced Gemini 3.5 Flash, its most capable Flash-series model to date. The company says it outperforms Gemini 3.1 Pro on coding and agentic benchmarks and runs at four times the speed of comparable frontier models.
The first new model, Gemini 3.5 Flash, rolls out to all users starting now. Google CEO Sundar Pichai told reporters during a briefing ahead of I/O that the model is "an incredible delight to use" and a "game changer" internally at Google. It's trained to operate quickly and accomplishes tasks at about half the cost of competitor models, he said.
Anthropic says an unreleased AI model helped partner companies uncover more than 10,000 cybersecurity vulnerabilities in just one month, highlighting its use in large-scale software security testing.
Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have created a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that helps reveal how genes function together inside human cells, offering a powerful new way to understand biology and disease.
Anthropic aims to make its Mythos-class AI models widely available after the model found thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities in critical open-source software.
Google made a number of AI announcements at its annual developer conference, rolling out more-advanced models and agentic tools for its expansive user base.
Here's the reality that AI vendors won't admit: AI is a force multiplier, not a foundation. If your delivery model is broken—with isolated teams, unclear expectations or poor coordination—AI will not fix it. It will make things worse: bad code written faster, confusing documentation at scale and miscommunication automated.
Google just unveiled a brand new AI world model at Google I/O 2026 called Gemini Omni. While Google calls Gemini Omni a "new model that can create anything from any output," its showcase focused on the AI model's video-generation capabilities.
Even if you aren’t using Google Gemini, it might be using your device. Security researcher Alexander Hanff, also known as “That Privacy Guy,” recently reported that Google’s widely used Chrome web browser is quietly storing an on-device AI model without explicitly asking for user permission.
The order, which is expected this week, comes as the Trump administration grapples with the national security implications of advanced cyber-focused AI models like Anthropic’s Mythos.
