Google Says Gemini 4 Release Is Coming 'as Soon as Possible'
Koray Kavukcuoglu said Google will release an early post-training output and keep fast iterations as Gemini 4 remains in refinement.
- Google DeepMind leader Koray Kavukcuoglu said Gemini 4 is currently in its refinement stage, with the company aiming to launch the model "much earlier" than the end of 2026.
- Following the August departure of former AI head Demis Hassabis, who announced "great progress" on Gemini 4, Google seeks to restore a consistent AI release timeline.
- Google "took a little bit of a step back" to prioritize faster, less powerful Flash models after failing to roll out the promised Gemini 3.5 Pro update in June.
- Both OpenAI's GPT-6 and Anthropic's Mythos outperform the older Gemini 3 series, giving rival AI providers a sizable lead against Google in the ongoing race.
- Kavukcuoglu told The Information that "In my mind, it" is a certainty Google remains at the frontier while the company will "continue the fast-paced iterations" going forward.
