The Summit Changes Hands

In the valley of Google, a promised model never came. Bolt: Gemini 3.5 Pro, due by June, skipped; last November Google led and rivals cried code red. Lord Ozen: now I lead forever! Aki: the summit changes hands. Gemini 4 Argon, Google's first big release since February, took the place of a model it decided would not beat its rivals.

Google's Gemini 4 Argon replaced a model that never shipped: in May Google said it would release Gemini 3.5 Pro by June, then dropped it because it was unlikely to outpace rivals, and the lead in AI keeps changing hands, as in November 2025 when a Google model pushed OpenAI to declare a 'code red'.
