    Google Releases Gemini 4 Argon, Limited-Time Half-Price API

    Google has released its flagship model Gemini 4 Argon, focused on coding, professional knowledge work, and sustained execution of complex tasks. The API launch price is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, with the discount running through November 30; from December 1, prices return to $4 and $20. On the third-party Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, Argon High ties with GPT-6 Astra Max and Claude Fable5.1 Max at 53 points, at an average cost of $1.99 per task, about 39% lower than Astra. Google says that on an ADK project it worked unattended continuously for 11 hours, proposed six optimization plans involving 32 files, and ran 16,892 tests, two of which were merged, reducing long-session memory preparation overhead by about 40%.

    DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 released, with simultaneous improvements in benchmark performance and cost

    DeepSeek has released DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017, claiming stronger benchmark performance, faster task completion, and shorter outputs, achieving a Pareto improvement in performance and cost; it is now live on the official website, App, and API. This version has been optimized for DeepSeek Harness, Tencent CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, and others, and requires upgrading to DeepSeek Harness v0.2.1-rc.1 or later for the best experience. Nathan Lambert thinks its naming approach (a minor version number plus a date tag) is quite absurd, but the benchmark gains are large, and with built-in vision capability it may be stronger than GLM 5.3.
