Most important, we want to get this model into as many scientistsβ hands as we can.
Today, weβre announcing that 10,000 scientists will get the highest usage tier access to Gemini 4 Argon in Google @antigravity free of charge for 6 months.
Apply here: forms.gle/WvmBbPvRbpKG1BPn9
Information provides the ultimate strategic advantage.
At NRO, we provide this advantage from the ultimate high ground. We design, build, and operate the world's most advanced reconnaissance satellites, delivering the critical data needed to protect our nation and its allies.
Today weβre introducing Gemini 4 Argon.
It delivers frontier performance in complex workflows across real-world software engineering, knowledge work, and cybersecurity defense with an industry-leading 1M token output limit.

π 10y @googlephotos Quotes to keep
Thanks @JeffDean "... Further advances led to applications like Google Photos in 2015, letting you search photos by whatβs in them. ..to help you find addresses in Google Maps, sense of videos on YouTube, explore the world using Google Lens."
π Can AI forecast floods β and save lives?
@GoogleAI Flood Hub can predict flood risk 7 days ahead - even with scarce data.
π‘ Direct alerts save lives
π Free, scalable & open-access

old enough to remember when the model authors and acknowledgments sections went on for pages and pages, taking pains to be sure to add everyone who contributed -- even if they'd gone to a competitor's lab

the best part of open models isn't the benchmarks: it's the humans fine-tuning with @UnslothAI on a consumer gpu (even on @kaggle or @googlecolab!), the team shipping on-device with no cloud bill, the multimodal demo that shouldn't work but does β₯οΈ
1B @googlegemma downloads = 1B chances someone builds something no one on our research and engineering teams ever dreamed of
that's the magic β¨ β at San Francisco, CA
ICYMI, we're celebrating 1 BILLION+ downloads for @googlegemma π
How are developers actually using open models? @GoogleDeepMindβs @DynamicWebPaige caught up with devs and collaborators like @UnslothAI and @Qualcomm to hear how theyβre building on-device tools, running local fine-tuning, and pushing multimodal breakthroughs.

in 2012 i published a library to capture canvas-based animations at a fixed framerate
5 years ago i started modernizing it but couldn't find the time to complete it
with claude i've managed to push it past the finish line

π You canβt fix what you canβt see.
Methane is invisible to the naked eye, but drives ~25% of global warming. @Google + @NASAJPL just released MAPL-EMIT: a vision transformer that spots methane leaks from space and then pinpoints their exact source.
To train it, the researchers injected 3.6M physics-simulated plumes into real NASA EMIT satellite scans. It captures 84% of expert plumes and maps 50% more leaks than existing methods.
@GoogleAI's open-sourcing the model, synthetic data, @GoogleEarth Engine app, and code - take a look! π°οΈπ

Man, you rock; keep going. I enjoy your work and find a lot of inspiration in it, since we both share the same pain points.

Part 3: In the limit, robotics probably shouldn't use explicitly 3D representations and should instead focus on the easier task of predicting actions.

Part 2: my current sense of which research areas probably should and maybe shouldn't care about using explicitly 3D representations. The rest of the talk is a deeper dive into each research area.
