Google announces Gemini 4 and says it’s so capable that only ‘trusted cyber defenders’ can have it right now

Summary

Google announced Gemini 4 Argon, a new frontier model that it says delivers strong performance in software engineering, enterprise work such as legal and finance, and cybersecurity defense. Access is limited at first to a set of trusted cyber defenders, and Google is taking part in the U.S. government's voluntary pre-release access process while it gradually expands availability.
