Article Summaries:

  • Google released Gemini 3.1 Pro, a preview model that builds on the Deep Think architecture to deliver stronger reasoning performance than its predecessor. On the ARC‑AGI‑2 benchmark it scores 77.1 % versus 31.1 % for the previous Gemini Pro, surpassing Anthropic’s Opus 4.6 (68.8 %) and OpenAI’s GPT‑5.2 (52.9 %). The model also tops most coding benchmarks, though it lags on GDPval‑AA. It offers a 1‑million‑token context window but limits output to 64,000 tokens. Pricing remains $2/$12 per million tokens, cheaper than competitors. Gemini 3.1 Pro is available via the Gemini API, Vertex AI, and consumer apps, though it remains in preview.
