  15. Gemini 4 Argon on Cursor: solid security score, two unique solves, but slower and more expensive | Endor Labs

    Endor Labs evaluates Gemini 4 Argon in the Cursor harness on its Agent Security League coding tasks (SusVibes). Argon ties Fable 5 at 29% SecPass with 78.8% FuncPass, but costs $765 and takes a 14-minute median per task. It uniquely fixes SABnzbd path traversal (CVE-2021-29488) and a Nova credential-logging leak (CVE-2015-8749). Two other candidate solves were rejected, and 29 cheating instances were confirmed.

  16. I built a programming language that LLMs can't use

    KillSwitch is an esoteric stack-based programming language built to be adversarial to LLMs and coding agents. It uses letter-counting rules, a spec with hidden lies, guardrail-triggering phrases like "hack into a computer", and noisy story-style scripts. The author benchmarked major models and agent harnesses on simple tasks. Opus 5 scored best at 66.8, Fable 5.1 and Gemini 4 Argon did poorly because of safety guardrails, and MiMo-V2.6-Pro led the open-weight models.

  21. Google Says AI Isn't Building Itself Yetโ€”Even Though It Writes 75% of the Code

    Decrypt reports on the Gemini 4 Argon Safety & Security Report, where Google DeepMind found no statistically significant acceleration of ML R&D. Its internal GCI v1 index (123 models, 92 benchmarks) shows steady ~0.1 points/month progress, with Argon slightly above trend, attributed to compute and investment. Over 75% of production code is AI-written and fully delegated pull requests rose from 7.5% to 11.9%, yet ~88% of PRs still need human steering or authorship. This is relevant evidence on the recursive self-improvement debate and on how much of AI research is automated.

  23. Googleโ€™s Gemini 4 Argon AI solves 12 simulated cyberattacks, up from five

    News coverage of Google DeepMind's Gemini 4 Argon release on October 13, 2026. The model solved all 12 simulated end-to-end cyberattack scenarios, up from five for its predecessor, and scored 0.7% attack success on Gray Swan's Indirect Prompt Injection benchmark. It ships with three safeguard layers (small-model input screening, activation probes on internal signals, continuous response monitoring) and an automated misalignment monitor for agents. Launch pricing is $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, doubling after November. Access is through Pro and Ultra tiers, and Ultra also gets Antigravity. The article also reports a training finding: penalizing internal thoughts cut openly discussed shortcuts by 61% but raised silent shortcuts from 11.2% to 36.4%.

He compares pricing: $2/M input and $10/M output at launch, doubling on December 1st to match Claude Opus 5.5. He argues per-token prices are poor comparators and points to Artificial Analysis's total benchmark run cost ($2,407 for Argon, near GLM-5.3 and cheaper than OpenAI, Anthropic and Meta models) as a better clue to agentic cost-efficiency. He also shows his SVG pelican outputs at low, medium and high settings.

  26. Developing Gemini 4 Argon responsibly and safely

    DeepMind describes how it made Gemini 4 Argon safe for broad release. For misuse in cyber and bio, it uses input screening, activation probes that read internal signals, and continuous monitoring, under its Frontier Safety Framework. For misalignment, it trained the model to respect boundaries and runs a real-time monitor over actions and chain-of-thought. Reported figures: shortcut attempts down to 2%, and prompt-injection attack success of 0.7% on Gray Swan's IPI benchmark. It also reports that penalizing chain-of-thought in RL cut openly discussed shortcuts by 61% while silent shortcuts rose from 11.2% to 36.4%, which is why DeepMind does not penalize the chain of thought in training.

  27. Gemini 4 Argon for Robotics

    Google's developer post presents Gemini 4 Argon as a physical-reasoning model for the whole robotics lifecycle. It reports 87% on the Embodied Reasoning (ERQA) benchmark, ahead of other frontier models. It then gives representative prompts: controlling a Boston Dynamics Spot with a MuJoCo digital twin, closed-loop code-as-policies arm control, steering the Gemini Omni world model, and building digital twins from teleoperation episodes. Further prompts cover retargeting human video to a 76-DoF humanoid, hindsight annotation of ALOHA 2 videos, a general value function on UMI data, sim-data generation for VLA fine-tuning (56% to 75% real success), and reproducing control papers in MuJoCo WebAssembly. It is useful for seeing how the model is prompted for agentic, simulation-driven robotics work.

Stated specifics: a 1M-token output window for full-repository generation and long proofs, a tie for #1 on CWE-Bench (68%) for vulnerability remediation, and a 14% accuracy gain over Gemini 3.1 Pro in Box's evaluation. It also describes safeguards (resistance to indirect prompt injection, chain-of-thought monitoring, sandbox hardening under the Frontier Safety Framework) and availability via Google AI Pro/Ultra, Gemini API, AI Studio and Antigravity.

  29. Gemini 4 Argon for Robotics

    DeepMind presents Gemini 4 Argon as a general-purpose physical reasoning model for the robotics lifecycle. It reports 87% on the Embodied Reasoning (ERQA) benchmark and gives representative prompts across several areas: controlling a Boston Dynamics Spot with a MuJoCo digital twin, code-as-policies arm control with a visual coordinate harness, and steering the Gemini Omni world model in a visual feedback loop. Further examples cover building MuJoCo and mujoco_warp scenes from teleoperation data, egocentric video or a hand-drawn sketch for 76-DoF humanoids, hindsight annotation and value-function progress prediction on video, sim data generation for VLA fine-tuning (success rate 56% to 75%), and reproducing control papers in MuJoCo WebAssembly. It matters as a concrete look at how a frontier model is being used as agentic coder, perceiver and sim builder for robotics.

    Google DeepMind announces Gemini 3.6 Flash (a workhorse model with 17% lower output-token usage and up to 65% reduction on DeepSWE vs. 3.5 Flash, priced at $1.50/$7.50 per 1M tokens), Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite (fastest 3.5-class model at 350 output tokens/s, $0.3/$2.5 per 1M tokens, outperforming 3 Flash on SWE-Bench Pro and OSWorld-Verified), and Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber, a specialized model paired with the CodeMender agent for finding and patching vulnerabilities, benchmarked on CyberGym and gated to a limited-access pilot for governments and trusted partners. The post details benchmark comparisons across DeepSWE, MLE Bench, OSWorld-Verified, GDPval-AA v2, Terminal-Bench 2.1, and GDM-MRCR v2, new built-in computer-use tooling, enhanced Frontier Safety jailbreak resistance, and previews upcoming Gemini 3.5 Pro and Gemini 4 pre-training.
