Google announces Gemini 4 Carbon, its next frontier model

AIGoogle says Gemini 4 Carbon ranks first on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0 with a score of 59, two weeks after Gemini 4 Argon. It reports 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro, 54.8% on ExploitGym and 71.0% on CWE-bench, and access will roll out gradually to trusted cyber defenders and partners.

I honestly don’t know how to try Gemini in the agentic era, maybe I finally need to fix that. Pretty wild they just have been out of it since December 2025 but look maybe back.

I did say we'd be releasing our models periodically...introducing Gemini 4 Carbon, our next frontier model. Following Argon's release just two weeks ago, Carbon shows the pace at which we’re pushing the frontier, it ranks #1 on the recently updated v5.0 of @ArtificialAnlys Intelligence Index at 59. It also leads across key cybersecurity evaluations scoring 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro for finding vulnerabilities, 54.8% on ExploitGym for exploitation, and 71.0% on CWE-bench for patching. We’re seeing significant improvements in long-horizon tasks even compared to Argon, and we’ve strengthened frontier safeguards. As we did with Argon, we’re going to roll it out gradually + responsibly. Some trusted cyber defenders will get access starting this week. We'll be expanding it to more partners through our Fairwind Program, ahead of wider availability soon, so hang tight!
