Defenders of Google's pace point to Genie 4 world model launch and Gemini 4 Argon announcement
haider1 · x · 2026-10-29
Responding to a month of mockery about Google's apparent inaction, the author points to a rapid run of releases: the Genie 4 world model launched yesterday and Gemini 4 Argon was announced 15 days ago (with "Gemini 4 Carbon" also mentioned). His point: Google pushes progress across far more fields than just LLMs, so judging it by chat-model cadence alone misses the picture. Specific model names are the author's claims, not fully confirmed.
