Google announces Gemini 4 Carbon, aimed first at finding and fixing security flaws
Google announced Gemini 4 Carbon on Oct. 28 as its new top model, reporting gains in coding and in finding and patching software security flaws on its own tests. It went first to a small group of security defenders, with other trusted partners added over time through what Google calls the Fairwind Program. Google has not set a date for developers, businesses and the public.
