Google has ushered in a new era for its AI ambitions with the launch of the Gemini 3, which it calls its “smartest model” to date.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai officially made this announcement, reflecting an important step in the company’s pursuit of advanced AI capable of rivaling human reasoning.
The flagship Gemini 3 Pro is now available in the Gemini app and, for the first time, the company has integrated it directly into Google Search from day one.
Developers can also access it through AI Studio and Vertex AI. The model is capable of cutting-edge reasoning, designed to capture the death and nuances of complex problems.
Google claims that it significantly outperforms its predecessor, i.e. Gemini 2.5 Pro, in major benchmarks, achieving top scores in areas such as PhD-level reasoning and mathematics.
An important improvement made in this model is the move away from “flattery” or “cliché.”
Rather, Gemini 3 is designed to deliver concise, direct and genuine information, acting as a “true thought partner.”
It also allows users to learn complex topics through interactive visualizations, create richer applications following “vibration coding,” and plan multi-step tasks with improved long-term planning.
In addition to the standard Pro model, Google introduced “Gemini 3 Deep Think,” an improved reasoning model that delivers even better results.
Specifically for developers, the company has introduced a new agent development platform called “Google Antigravity” that uses Gemini 3 to autonomously plan and execute complex software tasks.
The company also claims that it is its most secure model yet, citing that the Gemini 3 has undergone extensive safety evaluations.
The launch begins immediately, marking the next chapter in Google’s rapidly accelerating AI roadmap.
