Google doubles down on cheaper, faster AI — but says Gemini 3.5 Pro still isn't ready - Business Insider

The company said the models are aimed at developers building autonomous agents that can browse the web, fill forms, and complete online tasks. However, Google also confirmed that its flagship model, Gemini 3.5 Pro, is still in testing and not yet ready for release.

Google emphasised that the models are optimised for 'agentic' use cases, where AI performs multi-step tasks with minimal human oversight.

Google stated that Gemini 3.5 Pro remains under development due to ongoing work to improve reliability and cost efficiency. The company did not provide a specific timeline for its release. Industry observers note that the delay highlights the difficulty of building frontier models that can operate safely and affordably at scale.
