Gemini 4 Pro / Flash: benchmarks, hands-on tests and leaks

An experiment described by WesRoth had four Gemini 4 Argon agents assign their own roles, share code and recover each other's dropped items, finishing Minecraft in 27 hours with 2,783 programs and 605 deaths.

Gemini 4 Argon is now available to all Google AI Pro subscribers in AI Studio, per a short announcement.

A screenshot shows Argon in AI Studio, with promo Pro accounts also covered, while Antigravity usage limits still need loosening.

A user says Gemini 3.7 Flash once gave 14 hours and 850k tokens, but after Gemini 4 even Gemini 3.8 Flash gives only 3-4 hours, and older Flash models are being removed.

A Google employee says Argon is now available to Google AI Pro users in AI Studio's Build and Playground, and invites people to share what they are building.

Google AI Studio announced that Google AI Pro subscribers can now build with Gemini 4 Argon in AI Studio Build and Playground.

A developer shows 3D slide decks with a 2D perspective built in Antigravity with Gemini 4 Argon, calling it one of their favorite recent projects.

A reply says Argon usage among Pro users is very low and Google teams are looking for ways to improve it quickly, hinting it is not recommended to rely on it for now.

Kaggle launched a pelican bench arena where models generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle and humans vote on the results; GPT-6 Astra is currently first and Gemini 4 Argon second.

A heavy user says running Gemini 4 Argon in Antigravity quickly exhausts the weekly limits and forces paid tokens, and asks for larger or better-optimized limits.

The official announcement cites 35% more efficient code delivery and 1M unified input and output tokens, with access via the paid API, Gemini for Business, Antigravity and the Gemini app.

Google reset Gemini model quotas for everyone, but one user says Argon's weekly Pro quota in Antigravity is nearly unusable for real work and drained two Pro accounts in about two hours.
