Google has shared new details about Gemini 4, confirming that pre-training is underway for what CEO Sundar Pichai called the company's most ambitious frontier model to date.
During Alphabet's Q2 2026 earnings call, Pichai acknowledged that Google needs stronger coding and agentic AI capabilities and said Gemini 4 is being built with a significantly larger base model to compete at the AI frontier.
While Gemini 3.5 Pro remains in partner testing, Google plans to continue releasing improved Flash models at a rapid pace as it prepares its next flagship AI system.
