Google's New Models Hit NYT Before X, Signaling Disconnect from Dev Community
Aizkmusic · x · 2026-07-22
The author observed that Google recently released 3 new models, but the news appeared first in the New York Times rather than on X (Twitter).
Noting that this has never happened in the past 3 years—where major AI labs always launched on Twitter first—the author views this as a giant bear signal for Google, indicating a disconnect from the core developer ecosystem.
