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

A developer claims he turned down an offer to work on Gemini App's upcoming Argon model, citing insufficient growth, and joined Anthropic to work on Fable 6.0 instead.

A screen-recorded reaction in which the author uses Google Argon, reportedly Gemini 4 Pro, to walk through Anthropic's full S-1 registration statement.

A team released zero-shot LIBERO-10 robot-manipulation baselines comparing GPT Astra/Sol/Luna, Claude Opus and Gemini-4 on reasoning and acting.

A roundup notes the Gemini 4 Carbon checkpoint in Arena was just updated, alongside Anthropic IPO filing, a possible fable 5.5 launch, and Kimi K3.1 appearing as Kibitz.

A commentator argues Gemini 4 Argon is strong but still a tier below ChatGPT and Claude, and mentions the rumored next-gen Carbon.

A prediction-market screenshot shows Google leading at 71% versus Anthropic's 28% after Gemini 4 Argon's release, with Anthropic's odds resting on an unrumored new Claude.

A user says they are tempted to move to Gemini Argon because Google holds more of their context than Anthropic and Argon's pricing is competitive.

The Information reports Anthropic is preparing a model better at inferring unstated intent, and notes Google is working on Gemini 4 Carbon, an upgrade to Gemini 4 Argon.

A speculative post says Anthropic and OpenAI have releases coming and that Google has soured on Argon, pivoting to Gemini 4 Carbon.

The author bets Anthropic ships Fable 5.5 on Tuesday, possibly alongside GPT-6.1 Terra and Gemini 4 Carbon, seeing the IPO as the motive for an early launch.

The post claims Anthropic's Fable 5.5 has reached partners and could launch this week, alongside chatter about a Google Gemini 4 Carbon and a new OpenAI Terra model.

A user notes that a new Anthropic model, Gemini 4 Carbon, and possibly OpenAI Terra are all rumored for this month, just a week after Argon landed.
