Read original source →blog.google
Gemini 4 Argon rolls out first to trusted cyber defenders via Google's Fairwind Program, priced at an introductory $2/M input and $10/M output tokens with cached input 95% off. Google says it tops the Vals Index at 68.9% and Text Arena at 1525 points, and is already used internally for quantum subroutine optimization and data-center memory savings.
