We’re transforming Google Antigravity into a scientific workbench. The new Science Skills bundle allows researchers to run complex workflows like protein analysis in minutes using specialized Alpha* models and 30+ major scientific databases.
Introducing Gemini for Science — a collection of AI tools to help accelerate the scientific process. Gemini can already assist in solving complex problems, but our new @GoogleLabs prototypes can help streamline more daily scientific tasks, including:
📃 Staying on top of new papers
🧑💻 Transforming research goals into usable code
💡Generating new hypotheses

We’re introducing Universal Cart — a new hub for shopping on Google.
🛍️ It will work across merchants and across services.
🛒 You’ll be able to add things to your cart whether you're shopping on Search, the @GeminiApp, @YouTube or @Gmail.
🛠️ The moment you add a product to your cart, it goes to work for you in the background. It finds deals and price drops, gives you insights on price history and alerts you when something comes back in stock.
🧠 It runs on our Gemini models, so your cart gets even smarter as the models improve.
💡 It also applies intelligent reasoning to your cart to help anticipate your needs. For example, if you add something to your cart that’s incompatible with something you already have in there, your cart catches it and suggests an alternative.
💲 It can find you hidden savings. Since it's built on Google Wallet, your cart understands your payment method perks, loyalty information and merchant offers so you don’t miss out on deals or points.

🛍️ Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) does for agentic commerce what HTTP did for the web — it gives agents and systems a common language.
It makes everything from product research to checkout to shipment tracking seamless.
Starting soon, we’re bringing UCP to even more verticals like hotels and local food delivery providers — plus more surfaces, including @YouTube.
#GoogleIO
We asked our agents to build a working operating system from scratch using @Antigravity 2.0 and Gemini 3.5 Flash.
It took:
⏱️ 12 hours
🤖 93 parallel sub-agents
🔄 15k+ model requests
🧠 2.6B tokens processed
💸 Less than $1K in API credits
To build a functioning OS from scratch.
#GoogleIO
Gemini Omni Flash is rolling out starting today.
Here’s where you can find it:
🔹 Today: Google AI Plus, Pro and Ultra subscribers globally in the @GeminiApp and @FlowbyGoogle .
🔹Rolling out starting this week, for no cost: @YouTube Shorts and the YouTube Create app.
🔹Coming weeks: developers and enterprise customers via APIs.
#GoogleIO
Introducing Gemini Spark ✨
It’s your 24/7 personal AI agent that helps you navigate your digital life, taking action on your behalf, and under your direction.
🧠 It runs on Gemini 3.5 and is built on @Antigravity, so it can perform long-running tasks easily in the background.
⏱️ And because it runs on dedicated virtual machines on Google Cloud, you don’t even need to keep your laptop open.
🧰 Spark will integrate seamlessly with Google tools, and soon with third parties through MCP.
#GoogleIO
Meet Gemini 3.5 Flash — our strongest agentic and coding model yet.
It delivers frontier-level performance at 4x the speed of comparable frontier models — often at less than half the cost.
Generally available, starting today. 🧵
#GoogleIO
We’re expanding Google @Antigravity’s agentic surfaces and features — and they’re all available now for you to try.
🔹 Antigravity CLI
🔹 Antigravity SDK
🔹 Native voice support with Gemini Audio models
🔹 @Antigravity 2.0 desktop application
🔹 Integrations with @GoogleAIStudio, @Android, @Firebase, and the web

Andrej Karpathy: "90% of your AI coding bill is paying for context you didn't need to send"
Here are 10 things senior AI engineers stopped wasting tokens on:
1. Auto-context loading 50 files for a 30-line fix: $1.20/turn for tokens you'll never read. 80% input waste, every session
2. Running Opus on lint, format, and rename tasks: $0.60 for what Haiku nails at $0.02. 30x overpay on the cleanup tier
3. Tool call loops that re-send the full repo on every retry: 5x context cost per agentic flow. fixing these alone cuts 30-50% of bills
4. Sonnet as the default model: Kimi 2.6 matches its quality on most coding tasks at 1/6 the cost. defaulting to Sonnet in 2026 is leaving 60-70% on the table
5. Streaming responses on stable-prefix workflows: kills your prompt cache. you pay 10x for tokens that should have cost cents
6. "Just in case" file includes: 80,000-token prompts that should be 3,000. context bloat is the silent budget killer
7. Per-session knowledge rebuilding: 10 min writing a SKILL.md once vs paying agents to re-figure out your environment every run. $4 vs $0.30 per execution
8. Single-model setups: premium tier on every task is the most expensive mistake in AI coding right now
9. Asking 10 small questions one at a time: 10 separate input prefix charges vs one batched call. 70-90% savings on routine workflows
10. Buying Claude Pro + ChatGPT Plus + Cursor Pro: you seriously use one. the other two are habit, not utility
what actually compounds instead:
- context discipline (grep before fetching, always)
- prompt caching on every stable prefix
- multi-model routing (Kimi 2.6 default, Opus for the 10%)
- graduated skills via SKILL.md files
- profiling tool calls before optimizing prompts
- the routing mindset (right model for right task)
in 12 months, the gap between developers shipping on $200/month and $4,000/month budgets won't be skill
it'll be how well they route
study this.
Gemini CLI hooks best practice: use specific matchers.
Instead of running a hook for every tool, use the matcher property (e.g., "𝚖𝚊𝚝𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚛": "𝚠𝚛𝚒𝚝𝚎_𝚏𝚒𝚕𝚎|𝚛𝚎𝚙𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚎") to limit execution to relevant events.

Gemini can now transform your questions and complex concepts into customizable interactive visualizations directly in your chat.
Adjust variables, rotate 3D models, and explore data for a more immersive way to learn and explore in Gemini.
Gemma 4 can run on phones without an internet connection! 🤯
It can perform local agentic tasks, such as logging and analyzing trends. When connected, it can also make API calls.
Want to try it yourself? Get the Google AI Edge App on iOS or Android. (🔊 Sound on for the demo!)
