  "transcript": "So their last frontier image model they dropped was Nano Banana 2, which is 6 months old... Gemini 3.6 Flash is self explanatory, Gemini 3.5 Pro delayed or not dropped at all iirc...\n\nBut like, it's Google... Surely they must be cooking something under the hood cause they've fallen off way behind right now, they probably have the best dataset, they're Google duh, they have all of YouTube to make a video model if they wanted to for example... Why are they so behind then right now?\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[94 upvotes] They're still putting out models, just not ones certain people care about. \n\n- Gemini Robotics ER 2\n- Lyria 3.5\n- WeatherNext 2\n- Gemini Omni Flash\n\nThey seems to have broader variety of AI models when compared to other US labs.\n\n[46 upvotes] Google is in the middle of pulling off the miracle of integrating AI throughout the products of the world's largest internet company. I wish they were on top like when 3.0 launched but I don't think it would make them any money, and certainly not as much money as improving their actual money makers. I think it will be a while longer (in AI race time) before they're competing at the very top end again but the company will be stronger for it.\n\n[31 upvotes] I think there are mass-bot campaigns online suggesting that Google is in worst shape than they are\n\nThey released frontier models in the last 12 months.. Obviously AI is fast moving but it's always dumb to discount google.\n\nVery possible they aren't quite as interested in LLMS as others but IMO google is in a prime position to take advantage of AGI.",
