Gemini 4 Carbon: Our next frontier model
deepmind ·
Google DeepMind has announced Gemini 4 Carbon, its most powerful frontier model featuring state-of-the-art cybersecurity and long-horizon capabilities. The model ranks number one on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v5.0 and demonstrates significant improvements in coding, agentic tasks, and scientific domains. It leads in key cybersecurity benchmarks, including SEC-bench Pro for vulnerability detection, ExploitGym for exploitation validation, and CWE-bench for patching. Designed for sustained workflows, Carbon can persist through complex engineering challenges over extended periods while maintaining high alignment and safety standards. The company reports reduced misalignment rates and improved honesty compared to previous models like Argon. Access is currently being phased in for trusted cyber defenders via the Fairwind Program before a broader release. Pricing remains consistent with Argon at $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens.
