Gemini 3.5 Pro Faces Another Delay
koltregaskes · x · 2026-07-18
According to Bloomberg, Google has delayed the release of Gemini 3.5 Pro once again, pushing it back by a few months from its original June target. The company is still working to improve its coding capabilities, but progress has been slower than expected.
The post notes that internal organizational friction contributes to these delays: a single model must be adapted across multiple product lines like Search, Maps, and YouTube, resulting in higher coordination costs than competitors focusing on single products. Meanwhile, rivals continue to ship updates, widening the perceived gap.
