ProgramBench has released new benchmark results for Gemini 3.5 Flash and 3.6 Flash.
- Methodology: The benchmark gives an agent a compiled binary and its docs, asking it to rebuild the entire program from scratch without source code, decompilers, or internet access.
- Results: Gemini 3.6 Flash showed the best performance yet for a Google model in this extreme reverse-engineering task.
