- Improved coding and research performance, with fewer pointless edits and loops
- Computer use rises to 83% success, now built into Gemini API and enterprise client tools
- Stronger jailbreak/misuse protections, including biological, chemical, and cyber-risk safeguards, with fewer false refusals in normal use
