    Google Research releases SLEEP: using offline sleep cycles to mitigate catastrophic forgetting in large models

    Google Research releases the SLEEP method, which lets LLMs periodically switch between wakeful interaction and sleep consolidation, writing short-term contextual information into scalable long-term parameters, and self-improving with synthetic data during the dreaming phase. The sleep phase unlocks reserved MoE memory blocks, combining generalized knowledge distillation and imitation learning to complete memory consolidation, then resets high-frequency temporary parameters. In evaluations of continual translation on unseen languages, SLEEP shows near-zero performance drop; on BABILong it is claimed to scale to about 10 million tokens; on AIME 24/25 and HMMT 25 it achieves approximately 79.2%, 69.0%, and 46.1%, respectively.

    Google DeepMind Previews Gemini 4 Carbon, Claiming Leadership in Cybersecurity and Long-Horizon Capabilities

    Google DeepMind has previewed its next-generation frontier model, Gemini 4 Carbon, claiming it achieves SOTA in cybersecurity and long-horizon capabilities, ranking first on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0 with 59 points, while Claude Opus 5.5 scored 58. The model is not yet publicly available; it will first be opened to select cybersecurity defenders and trusted partners in the Fairwind program, and will participate in the U.S. government's voluntary pre-release testing, before gradually being opened to developers, enterprises, and consumers. Introductory pricing is the same as Argon, at approximately $2 input and $10 output per million tokens, rising to approximately $4 input and $20 output after the introductory period.

    Finnish police launch criminal investigation into Google data center construction

    Police in Oulu, Finland, have launched a criminal investigation into suspected violations of environmental regulations in the construction of a Google data center. The Muhos site is accused of excessive tree felling and deficiencies in drainage and water management. Google subsidiary Tuike Finland has been ordered by the regulatory authority LVV to stop felling, earthworks and blasting, and must submit a water management plan by next week. Google plans to invest at least 13 billion euros in Finland over the next two years to build digital infrastructure.

    Google Releases Gemini 4 Carbon, Focused on Cybersecurity and Coding Capabilities

    On October 28, Google released Gemini 4 Carbon, calling it its most powerful AI model to date, with a focus on improving cybersecurity and coding capabilities; it can identify software vulnerabilities, assess security risks, and generate remediation code. The model scored 88.2% on SEC-bench Pro, 54.8% on ExploitGym, and 71.0% on CWE-bench, and Google says these external security evaluations were run without guardrails. Carbon builds on Gemini 4 Argon, released two weeks earlier, and is initially available only to select cybersecurity defenders and trusted partners in the Fairwind Program, with no public access date announced yet; introductory pricing is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, rising to $4 and $20 afterward.

    Google DeepMind: Training models to write moral arguments makes them more decisive but does not improve judgment

    A new Google DeepMind paper found that after training Gemma-4 4B with reinforcement learning to write moral arguments, the proportion of cases where the model changed its answer on ambiguous MoralChoice cases due to a swap in option order dropped from 14.3% to 6.6%, but the proportion of sycophantic agreement with users only changed from 45.3% to 44.0%, and accuracy on moral fable questions actually fell from 56.5% to 53.4%. The paper recommends that when evaluating advice or judgment tasks, consistency and correctness be tested separately.

    Google shuts down the Jules AI agent, with related capabilities to be merged into Antigravity

    Google's Jules agent will be gradually shut down, and the experience and planned features of its asynchronous coding agent will be merged into Antigravity. Jules officially stated that after the integration, users will gain both autonomous remote background task execution and an agent-first development environment. TestingCatalog also mentioned that traces of a new Chief of Staff agent have appeared in Antigravity.

    Google DeepMind paper proposes measuring AGI's economic impact using two thresholds: competence and coordination

    Google DeepMind has released the paper "The Economics of Intelligence," proposing the use of two thresholds—competence (single-task capability) and coordination (agent collaboration capability)—to characterize AGI's impact on the economy. The authors argue that AI has already shown changes in leaner startups, flatter organizational structures, and slower hiring for some entry-level positions, but that mass unemployment has not yet occurred; most benchmarks test only a single model, whereas firms compete as teams. The paper also cites a 100-person test in which groups paired for complementarity outperformed randomly paired groups by 32%, showing that AI models sharing the same weaknesses may lose to well-coordinated human teams even if they beat every individual one-on-one.

    Google open-sources the Elephant-Goldfish Model plugin, letting AI separately handle the writing and verification of design documents

    On October 22, 2026, Google announced the open-sourcing of the Elephant-Goldfish Model (EGM) plugin, which pairs Elephant, responsible for conversing with users and writing design documents, with Goldfish, which independently verifies the documents without inheriting the conversation history, to identify ambiguities and omissions in specifications. The plugin was first developed internally at Google for software engineers, and it is said that thousands of employees already use it daily to develop production code; the repository uses the Apache 2.0 license. The first tagged version, v0.1.0, was released on October 27, containing a total of 7 skills. The README provides installation methods for Antigravity, Claude Code, and Codex, but the release notes state that verification across runtime environments has not yet been completed, so it cannot yet be called a stable version.
