Here's a side-by-side speed and accuracy comparison comparing Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite against our older Gemini 2.5 Flash model. Not only is the new model significantly faster in terms of tokens/s, it also needs many fewer tokens to accomplish complex tasks (~1/3 as many in this case).

It’s been 5 years since #AlphaFold 2 started to change how we see the biological universe. 🔬 What started as a solution to a 50-year-old scientific challenge has become a standard tool for discovery. Here’s how 3M+ researchers are using it in over 190 countries 🧵

What if you could not only watch a generated video, but explore it too? 🌐 Genie 3 is our groundbreaking world model that creates interactive, playable environments from a single text prompt. From photorealistic landscapes to fantasy realms, the possibilities are endless. 🧵

An advanced version of Gemini with Deep Think has officially achieved gold medal-level performance at the International Mathematical Olympiad. 🥇 It solved 5️⃣ out of 6️⃣ exceptionally difficult problems, involving algebra, combinatorics, geometry and number theory. Here’s how 🧵

We built an AI model to simulate how a fruit fly walks, flies and behaves – in partnership with @HHMIJanelia. 🪰 Our computerized insect replicates realistic motion, and can even use its eyes to control its actions. Here’s how we developed it – and what it means for science. 🧵

A stunning day to go to space.

I've been testing what you can do with Gemini Flash 2.0's native Audio generation capabilities. I think you are all going to like it when we open it up more in the future 🎄🎅✨♊️⚡️

@joecarlsonshow Where did you get the 175k number? I’ve been looking for a better way to track their progress.

So many people believe Waymo can't scale. Here are the numbers: - 50,000 rides a week 6 months ago. - 100,000 rides a week 3 months ago. - 150,000 rides a week 1 months ago - 175,000 rides last week. Waymo is scaling quickly. And they have good reason to become profitable over time. Waymo vehicles are cheaper every iteration, like the Waymo 6th generation, which is "optimized for costs" and is significantly cheaper than previous versions, despite being able to operate in harsher conditions. The central costs of having support staff and ride monitoring should scale efficiently as the number of rides grows (as it's done with Uber). Large capex investments into building and buying vehicles up-front should moderate over time. Lidar is becoming cheaper over time as well. Waymo will get more experience and better and faster at opening in new cities as time goes on. Google took a different business (Cloud) from deeply in the red to a profitable business over time. They know how to increase margins of capex heavy businesses. If you're on the "they can't scale" side, please explain why.

@daveginvesting What about Venus Life Finder?

How can you not think about the Roman Empire?

@jfozonx @Waymo Might be this one: waymo.com/blog/2024/08/m…

@Waymo Is there somewhere to read further about this? Feels like this should've had a link or video attached.

@LarryPanozzo @gunsnrosesgirl3 I think the snails end up closing the circuit (the snails are the resistor)

@gunsnrosesgirl3 I wonder what the size of the resistor on the other side is.
