Had early access to Gemini 4 Carbon, it is a very good model that improves on Argon. It is useful to have an AI that thinks differently than Claude/GPT & is still highly capable, but has its own strengths & weakness One fun demo: I gave Carbon a video clip & it reproduced in 3js https://t.co/IDOdrQtReH

The story so far

Bao Yu joked on X that Gemini was about to get a new model while GPT-6.2 was still nowhere in sight. Later, Ethan Mollick said he had early access to Gemini 4 Carbon and found it very good, saying it improved on Argon and had distinct strengths and weaknesses compared with Claude and GPT. He also said Carbon recreated a video clip in 3js.
