Early use cases of the just-launched Gemini 4 Argon on hard engineering problems: refactoring a 6M-line legacy folder in Chrome over weeks, cutting session prep time by 40% via overnight runs on ADK, and making Gemma 4 inference 2.85x faster on vLLM. Marketing-flavored but with concrete numbers — useful as early field reports on Argon.
