    Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon frontier model, claims first place on Intelligence Index

    Google releases its new-generation frontier model Gemini 4 Carbon, just two weeks after the release of Argon. The model ranks first with 59 points on the updated ArtificialAnlys Intelligence Index v5.0, and achieved scores of SEC-bench Pro 88.2%, ExploitGym 54.8%, and CWE-bench 71.0% in cybersecurity evaluations. Compared with Argon, Carbon shows significant improvement on long-horizon tasks, and frontier safety safeguards have also been strengthened; starting this week, it will first be opened to select trusted cybersecurity defenders, then expand the range of partners through the Fairwind Program, and gradually open up more broadly.

    Finnish police launch criminal investigation into Google data center construction

    Police in Oulu, Finland, have launched a criminal investigation into suspected violations of environmental regulations in the construction of a Google data center. The Muhos site is accused of excessive tree felling and deficiencies in drainage and water management. Google subsidiary Tuike Finland has been ordered by the regulatory authority LVV to stop felling, earthworks and blasting, and must submit a water management plan by next week. Google plans to invest at least 13 billion euros in Finland over the next two years to build digital infrastructure.

    Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon, strengthening long-duration development and vulnerability discovery and remediation capabilities

    On October 28, 2026, Google released the new model Gemini 4 Carbon, which improves coding and tool-calling capabilities over Gemini 4 Argon and strengthens cybersecurity defense capabilities spanning from vulnerability discovery and exploitability validation to remediation. On the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0, Carbon scored 59, ranking first, while Argon scored 50; on Terminal-Bench 4.0, the cheating success rate was 0.0% and the attempted cheating rate was 0.4%. That week, the model was first made available to some cybersecurity defenders and gradually expanded through the Fairwind Program, before later being opened to developers, enterprises, and general users. Announced pricing is $2 per million tokens for input and $10 per million tokens for output.

    At Android Dev Summit 2026, Google announced that multiple core Android XR development tools have ended their preview phase and entered stable release, including the Jetpack XR SDK core libraries, the Android XR Emulator, and the Android XR Engine Hub. Jetpack SceneCore, ARCore for Jetpack XR, and the XR Runtime core libraries provide official product development APIs and support long-term interface stability and backward compatibility; the emulator allows development and debugging for XR glasses, audio glasses, and display-equipped glasses without physical devices. The stable release of Android XR Engine Hub supports the three major engines Unity, Godot, and Unreal, and can be used to launch performance analysis and view runtime data. On the same day, Google partnered with XREAL to launch the XREAL AURA glasses powered by Android XR.

    Google Opens Android Development Tools to Third-Party Agents Such as Claude Code and Codex

    At the Android Dev Summit, Google announced that Android Studio and the Android CLI are open to third-party coding agents. Bring Your Own Agent now supports more than 40 agents that follow the Agent Client Protocol, including Claude Agent, Codex, and Google's own Antigravity, and has become stable in Android Studio Rabbit 2. The new android preview command lets agents render Jetpack Compose previews in the terminal; Google says it completes UI tasks 77% faster and reduces token usage by up to three times, but did not explain how this was measured. Meanwhile, android device remote lets agents access physical devices in Google's lab. In the demo, Claude Code used LeakCanary to troubleshoot a memory leak and then fixed and retested it on its own; Google says such investigations are nearly twice as fast and use up to 25% fewer tokens. Google also launched Android Bench 2.0 to evaluate how models and agents perform on complex Android tasks.

    Google Releases Flagship Model Gemini 4 Carbon, Strengthening Cybersecurity Capabilities

    Google has released the frontier large language model Gemini 4 Carbon, focused on complex programming and cybersecurity tasks. Google says internal testing shows its ability to generate secure code is more than twice that of the previous generation, that it surpasses the previous record on SEC-bench Pro, and that it can better patch discovered vulnerabilities; in Terminal-Bench 4.0, only 0.4% of problems involved attempted cheating, and none succeeded, while in the Gray Swan IPI Benchmark it blocked all simulated indirect prompt injections. Carbon will open early access later this week through the Fairwind Program to organizations such as internet service providers, and Google plans to refine its guardrails based on feedback before making it broadly available.

    Google DeepMind paper proposes measuring AGI's economic impact using two thresholds: competence and coordination

    Google DeepMind has released the paper "The Economics of Intelligence," proposing the use of two thresholds—competence (single-task capability) and coordination (agent collaboration capability)—to characterize AGI's impact on the economy. The authors argue that AI has already shown changes in leaner startups, flatter organizational structures, and slower hiring for some entry-level positions, but that mass unemployment has not yet occurred; most benchmarks test only a single model, whereas firms compete as teams. The paper also cites a 100-person test in which groups paired for complementarity outperformed randomly paired groups by 32%, showing that AI models sharing the same weaknesses may lose to well-coordinated human teams even if they beat every individual one-on-one.

    Alphabet's financial report shows Google AI search revenue is lower than traditional search

    After Alphabet announced its third-quarter financial results, its stock price fell nearly 10%. The company disclosed that revenue generated by AI search is lower than that of traditional search, even though overall search business revenue grew 12% year-over-year to $63.25 billion. Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler said the slowdown in search business growth stems from the lower monetization capability of AI Mode. Company spending for the quarter reached $51.4 billion, about two-thirds of which went to servers and networking equipment, while net profit was $26.17 billion, down from $35 billion in the same period last year.

    Google open-sources the Elephant-Goldfish Model plugin, letting AI separately handle the writing and verification of design documents

    On October 22, 2026, Google announced the open-sourcing of the Elephant-Goldfish Model (EGM) plugin, which pairs Elephant, responsible for conversing with users and writing design documents, with Goldfish, which independently verifies the documents without inheriting the conversation history, to identify ambiguities and omissions in specifications. The plugin was first developed internally at Google for software engineers, and it is said that thousands of employees already use it daily to develop production code; the repository uses the Apache 2.0 license. The first tagged version, v0.1.0, was released on October 27, containing a total of 7 skills. The README provides installation methods for Antigravity, Claude Code, and Codex, but the release notes state that verification across runtime environments has not yet been completed, so it cannot yet be called a stable version.
