MVP, the first test satellite of Google's space compute project, launches on a Falcon 9 on 1 October. The mission measures whether the chips survive radiation, vibration and heat in orbit.
Google DeepMind released two new audio models. Both are native speech-to-speech and priced at 1.38 dollars an hour, well under the rival offering.
Google open-sourced Mantis, a set of security review skills for coding agents. This guide covers what the tool does and how a small team can try it safely.
Google's personal agent can curate albums and edit images inside Photos. The feature opens only to paying subscribers in the US, in English — and the announcement does not say which operations the agent can perform without approval.
The model does not truly learn, but it writes itself better instructions after every run. Gemini 3.5 Flash went from 49.5 to 68.1 percent on average.
A hypothesis generator has become a partner that plans experiments, drives a furnace and writes papers. But physicians did not confirm its benchmark scores.
Benchmark questions leaking into training data make scores meaningless. DeepMind is using cryptography to close both sides off from each other.
Google is reported to be working with AMD on its 10th-generation TPU family. The more striking point is that Google is weighing adding CPU cores to the TPU package, as reasoning and agent workloads demand more general-purpose compute.
Google's research medical AI system AMIE has demonstrated real-time clinical video consultation capabilities. Patient actors preferred the video experience over text chat.
Google announced Gemini 3.7 Flash three weeks after Gemini 3.6 Flash's release, offering improvements in coding and agent tasks while halving its price.
Google introduced an option to disable the visible watermark on images, videos, and songs generated with Nano Banana, Omni, and Lyria models. The invisible SynthID watermark and C2PA metadata remain unchanged.
