Google announced Gemini 3, describing it as its most intelligent and capable AI model, designed to combine advanced reasoning, multimodal understanding, and agentic capabilities into a single system. According to CEO Sundar Pichai, Gemini’s evolution reflects a two-year push toward delivering increasingly powerful and accessible AI across products that reach billions of people.

Each Gemini generation has expanded what models can do:

Gemini 3 now unifies these capabilities, emphasizing depth, nuance, and contextual interpretation across text, images, audio, video, and code.

As Pichai noted, AI has quickly progressed from “reading text and images” to “reading the room,” with Gemini 3 built to better understand user intent with fewer prompts.

Google positions Gemini 3 Pro as a new frontier model for high-level reasoning, surpassing Gemini 2.5 Pro across every major benchmark. Results include:

For developers, Gemini 3 demonstrates strong agentic coding performance:

These results demonstrate improved reliability for technical, scientific, and enterprise workloads that depend on consistent reasoning and accurate tool usage.

Gemini 3 Pro also introduces greater depth and nuance to everyday interactions. Its responses are designed to be smart, concise, and direct, focusing on clear insight rather than clichés or flattery. Google describes it as a true thought partner, offering new ways to interpret information and express ideas — whether translating complex scientific concepts through high-fidelity visualizations or supporting creative brainstorming.

Google also introduces Gemini 3 Deep Think, a specialized mode designed for the most challenging reasoning tasks. In testing, Deep Think exceeded Gemini 3 Pro on:

Together, these results demonstrate strong performance on complex and entirely new problem types.

Access will begin with safety testers before rolling out to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the coming weeks.

Built on a foundation of multimodal reasoning, Gemini 3 expands these capabilities by supporting learning across text, video, handwritten notes, images, audio, and academic material. New capabilities include:

Google is also deploying Gemini 3 into AI Mode in Search, enabling immersive visual layouts, interactive simulations, and dynamic UI elements generated entirely on the fly based on the user’s query.

For developers, Gemini 3 advances both vibe coding (fast, intuitive UI generation) and agentic coding (AI that can plan and execute multi-step development tasks). Gemini 3 expands these capabilities by helping developers build more interactive, higher-fidelity software experiences with less prompting and greater autonomy from the model.

It is available immediately through:

Its improved zero-shot generation, reasoning, and interactive UI rendering enable developers to create richer prototypes, more dynamic web interfaces, and agent-driven development workflows that handle complexity with fewer instructions.

Alongside the release, Google introduced Google Antigravity, a new agent-first Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and AI-powered development platform built on Gemini 3 Pro, the Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model for browser control, and Google’s Nano Banana (Gemini 2.5 Image) system.

In the context of Gemini 3, Antigravity serves as:

This article provides only top-level context; AiNews will publish a dedicated deep-dive on Google Antigravity later today, exploring how it reimagines the developer workflow and how Gemini 3 powers its agentic capabilities.

With Gemini 3, Google reports major progress in structured planning and end-to-end task execution. The model now leads Vending-Bench 2, a benchmark that simulates running a vending-machine business across an entire virtual year.

According to Google, Gemini 3 maintains consistent tool usage and decision-making over long horizons, enabling more reliable execution of:

These capabilities begin rolling out through the Gemini app with Gemini Agent for Google AI Ultra subscribers, giving users early access to Gemini 3’s improved reasoning and long-horizon planning in real, everyday workflows.

Google describes Gemini 3 as its most thoroughly evaluated model to date, undergoing a broad range of internal and external safety checks before release. The model shows reduced sycophancy, increased resistance to prompt injections, and improved protection against misuse via cyberattacks, reflecting Google’s continued focus on secure deployment as the capabilities of its models increase.

Gemini 3 was evaluated across the critical domains outlined in Google’s Frontier Safety Framework, supplemented by input from external subject-matter experts, independent assessors, and early access provided to regulatory bodies such as the UK AISI. Google also partnered with specialist evaluators including Apollo, Vaultis, Dreadnode, and others to validate safety performance across a variety of high-risk scenarios.

A full breakdown of testing methods and results appears in the Gemini 3 model card.

As of today, Gemini 3 begins rolling out across Google’s consumer, developer, and enterprise products. The release brings Google’s most advanced reasoning, multimodal, and agentic capabilities to a wide range of real-world use cases.

Google notes that Gemini 3 Deep Think will become available to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the coming weeks, following additional safety evaluations and feedback from safety testers. The company will also introduce more models in the Gemini 3 series during this timeframe, broadening the capabilities available across its consumer, developer, and enterprise offerings.

Q: What is the core advancement of Gemini 3?
A: State-of-the-art reasoning, improved multimodal understanding, and deeper agentic abilities that support more complex tasks across text, images, video, audio, and code.

Q: How does Gemini 3 improve real-world productivity?
A: The model offers better factual accuracy, long-horizon planning, tool usage, and multimodal synthesis — allowing users and businesses to complete complex workflows more reliably.

Q: How is Gemini 3 being deployed across Google products?
A: It powers AI Mode in Search, the Gemini app, developer platforms such as AI Studio, enterprise services in Vertex AI, and the new Google Antigravity development environment.

Q: What makes Gemini 3 different from earlier Gemini releases?
A: It unifies multimodal understanding, advanced reasoning, and agentic capabilities into a single model, offering deeper context awareness, more autonomous task execution, and significant gains in factual accuracy and tool use.

The release of Gemini 3 marks a meaningful step in how people will use AI in practical, day-to-day situations. With stronger reasoning, a more reliable long-context window, and improved multimodal understanding, the model is designed to help individuals and teams work through complex information more easily — from understanding technical topics to planning multi-step tasks. For consumers, this means more accurate answers, clearer guidance, and tools that adapt better to the intent behind each query.

For businesses, Gemini 3 introduces capabilities that can streamline operations, support decision-making, and improve how information flows across teams. Its advances in factual accuracy, consistent tool use, and multimodal synthesis make it easier for organizations to analyze documents, understand large datasets, and automate structured workflows with greater reliability. Industries that depend on complex documentation, research, or planning may see immediate benefits as these features reach more Google products.

As developers begin using Gemini 3 through platforms like Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, and the new Google Antigravity environment, the model’s agentic abilities will support higher-level software creation, more autonomous coding workflows, and faster prototyping.
