Summary
Gemini 4 Carbon is now available to paying developers and enterprises via Google AI Studio and Gemini for business, while AI Ultra subscribers get it in the Gemini app, Search AI Mode and Antigravity.
Google positions Carbon above Gemini 4 Argon for complex multi-step coding, debugging and scientific research, saying it uses more tokens for deeper reasoning and longer verification loops.
On benchmarks, Carbon ranked No. 1 on CursorBench 4.0, WANDR and AutomationBench at more than 2x lower cost per task than the next-best external model, and No. 2 on the new MKA benchmark at over 6x lower cost.
Google also previewed Antigravity's /swarm feature, which turns one prompt into coordinated agents for design, coding and auditing across parallel workspaces.
In cybersecurity, Google said Carbon blocked 99% of simulated attack trajectories, cut breach rates to 0.8% from Argon's 3.1%, and is expanding access beyond the Fairwind pilot launched two weeks ago.
