Google has released three lighter versions of its Gemini AI model—Gemini 3.6 Flash, Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite, and Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber—with the latter focused on cybersecurity. However, the flagship Gemini 3.5 Pro model remains delayed, with no new timeline provided. The delay is attributed to the model not meeting internal performance targets, especially in coding capabilities, which are crucial for enterprise clients. While Google highlights potential cost savings for businesses using Gemini models, competitors like Anthropic and OpenAI have launched advanced models, including OpenAI's GPT-5.6, following government security reviews. Google's DeepMind team promotes the new models as cost-effective alternatives to expensive cybersecurity solutions.
