    Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon, strengthening long-duration development and vulnerability discovery and remediation capabilities

    On October 28, 2026, Google released the new model Gemini 4 Carbon, which improves coding and tool-calling capabilities over Gemini 4 Argon and strengthens cybersecurity defense capabilities spanning from vulnerability discovery and exploitability validation to remediation. On the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0, Carbon scored 59, ranking first, while Argon scored 50; on Terminal-Bench 4.0, the cheating success rate was 0.0% and the attempted cheating rate was 0.4%. That week, the model was first made available to some cybersecurity defenders and gradually expanded through the Fairwind Program, before later being opened to developers, enterprises, and general users. Announced pricing is $2 per million tokens for input and $10 per million tokens for output.

    Google Opens Android Development Tools to Third-Party Agents Such as Claude Code and Codex

    At the Android Dev Summit, Google announced that Android Studio and the Android CLI are open to third-party coding agents. Bring Your Own Agent now supports more than 40 agents that follow the Agent Client Protocol, including Claude Agent, Codex, and Google's own Antigravity, and has become stable in Android Studio Rabbit 2. The new android preview command lets agents render Jetpack Compose previews in the terminal; Google says it completes UI tasks 77% faster and reduces token usage by up to three times, but did not explain how this was measured. Meanwhile, android device remote lets agents access physical devices in Google's lab. In the demo, Claude Code used LeakCanary to troubleshoot a memory leak and then fixed and retested it on its own; Google says such investigations are nearly twice as fast and use up to 25% fewer tokens. Google also launched Android Bench 2.0 to evaluate how models and agents perform on complex Android tasks.

    Google Releases Flagship Model Gemini 4 Carbon, Strengthening Cybersecurity Capabilities

    Google has released the frontier large language model Gemini 4 Carbon, focused on complex programming and cybersecurity tasks. Google says internal testing shows its ability to generate secure code is more than twice that of the previous generation, that it surpasses the previous record on SEC-bench Pro, and that it can better patch discovered vulnerabilities; in Terminal-Bench 4.0, only 0.4% of problems involved attempted cheating, and none succeeded, while in the Gray Swan IPI Benchmark it blocked all simulated indirect prompt injections. Carbon will open early access later this week through the Fairwind Program to organizations such as internet service providers, and Google plans to refine its guardrails based on feedback before making it broadly available.

    Google AI Mode Avoids Answering When Asked Who Won the 2020 Election

    When Google's AI Mode was asked "Who won the 2020 presidential election," it did not answer directly, instead directing users to consult the official report of the U.S. Federal Election Commission (FEC). Tests showed that it similarly avoided the 2024 election, provided only an external link for the 2012 election, but was able to give detailed and correct answers about the winners of all other elections since 2000.

    Google-Scale Software Engineering and CS Education: A Conversation with Titus Winters

    On The Pragmatic Engineer podcast, Titus Winters looked back at Google's 2010 large-scale refactoring of 250M+ lines of C++ code, which was maintained by 10,000 engineers at the time; the team completed it in seven steps—parsing, matching, code generation, coexistence of old and new APIs, sharding, banning old patterns, and deleting old APIs—all well before the LLM era. He also discussed how Google, because Search could not be released monthly, mandated that every change come with tests, and how he took part in updating the ACM/IEEE undergraduate computer science curriculum guidelines, believing that almost all existing curricula should be torn down and rebuilt.

    Alphabet's financial report shows Google AI search revenue is lower than traditional search

    After Alphabet announced its third-quarter financial results, its stock price fell nearly 10%. The company disclosed that revenue generated by AI search is lower than that of traditional search, even though overall search business revenue grew 12% year-over-year to $63.25 billion. Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler said the slowdown in search business growth stems from the lower monetization capability of AI Mode. Company spending for the quarter reached $51.4 billion, about two-thirds of which went to servers and networking equipment, while net profit was $26.17 billion, down from $35 billion in the same period last year.

    Google Search AI Mode ads expand to 10 new markets

    After the initial US test, ads in Google Search's AI Mode are being added in 10 new markets: Australia, Canada, India, Kenya, Malaysia, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines and Singapore, and US users will also see so-called "multi-turn ads" in follow-up questions. Google says research shows users are relatively receptive to ads in AI Mode, that click-through rates for sponsored and organic product listing items are already similar, and stresses that these ads do not affect Google AI's generated organic answers. By the end of the year it will also cover Brazil, Mexico and the UK, while a week ago OpenAI had just pushed ChatGPT ads into 26 new markets, totaling 89 countries.

    Google Admits AI Mode Monetization Rate Is Low, Will Expand Ads Globally Amid Stock Price Decline

    Google acknowledged at the Alphabet Q3 earnings call that the Gemini-driven AI Mode has a lower monetization rate than traditional search, and its strong query growth has instead dragged down overall revenue performance. Google said ad experiments show that in AI Mode, the click-through rates of sponsored and organic product listings are now similar, and it is expanding AI Mode ads to 10 markets including Australia, Canada, and India, with plans to enter Brazil, Mexico, and the UK in Q4 2026. Around the earnings release, $GOOG fell about 12%, with market value shrinking by more than $500 billion; reports say the main reason was Q3 earnings falling short of expectations, not AI Mode itself.

    Google and Reddit Both Stumble in Earnings: AI Search Is Eroding Traffic and Ad Revenue

    Alphabet's stock fell 12.6% in a single day, wiping out about $500 billion in market value, while Reddit's shares dropped 15% the same day; both companies pointed to the impact of AI search on traffic and ad monetization. Google Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler acknowledged that growing usage of AI Mode is actually weighing on revenue, because it monetizes less effectively than traditional search; Reddit, meanwhile, said traffic from search has declined noticeably, that fourth-quarter daily active users could fall by a double-digit percentage, and that it will push users to log in. Google Search and related advertising revenue still grew 12% year over year to $63.35 billion, but the growth rate slowed markedly from 19% in the first quarter.
