Today we’re introducing Gemini 4 Carbon — our newest frontier model from @GoogleDeepMind.
Carbon is our strongest model with state-of-the-art cybersecurity and long horizon capabilities. Built for sustained agentic workflows, it delivers improved performance across domains — with greater alignment, transparency, and follow-through to respond to high-pressure tasks.
We’re rolling it out starting this week to cyber defenders through our Fairwind Program, with expanded access as soon as possible.

Google Beam can make you feel as though you’re in the same room as someone far away. For military service members, that’s more than just a nice-to-have—it helps them feel more connected with family members thousands of miles away.
That’s why we’re bringing @HP Dimension with @Google Beam to 20 USO locations globally.

Today, Google and Voltus announced an expanded agreement to build a 1-gigawatt (GW) virtual power plant across the PJM grid region, which serves 67 million people across 13 states and Washington, D.C. This agreement builds on a 100-megawatt agreement from earlier this year, and will unlock clean capacity in the region, while delivering direct savings to participating local homes and businesses.

Today at the Google Cloud Public Sector Summit, we announced Gemini for government services, a purpose-built industry solution built around five core architectural components:
✔️Skills for Government Work: Reusable instructions and context, written by domain experts, that teach Gemini to run specific tasks while directly applying governing statutes and agency standard operating procedures.
✔️Open Access to Systems: Secure connectors link Gemini directly to core agency databases and applications—including @salesforce, @Oracle, and @ServiceNow—as well as authoritative federal sources like the Federal Register and eCFR.
✔️Partner Agent Integrations: Built-in capabilities from public sector software providers that agencies can deploy right away to handle complex operations like public records discovery and batch redaction under a central control plane.
✔️Governed Control Plane: A single, secure environment for compliance teams to set and enforce strict policies using VPC Service Controls, CMEK, and Assured Workloads.
✔️Model Choice Flexibility: It orchestrates across multiple models to deliver optimal quality and lower agency costs—routing high-volume document parsing and routine records sweeps to fast, low-cost models, while reserving high-reasoning models for complex policy analysis.

I’m thrilled to see Google and Constellation partnering to add 890 MW of new nuclear capacity to the PJM grid, including through investments at nuclear plants right here in New Jersey.
This is the kind of partnership that can move our state forward – helping meet growing energy demand, create new jobs, and keep costs off ratepayers.

Google is transforming Chicago’s iconic Thompson Center into a thriving space for Googlers, local tenants, and the public.
The new design expands the central opening beneath the 17-story atrium with a cascading staircase, terraced seating, and retail spaces. On the plaza, we’re commissioning a major public art sculpture by Chicago-trained and world-renowned artist @sanfordbiggers. We're also expanding our local community investments by partnering with @AftrSchoolMttrs for student-designed art installation and providing a $1M grant to @_abetterchicago to support student attendance.
The Thompson Center will reopen its doors in 2028. Learn more. → goo.gle/4yKNBnA
