Gemini 4 model guidance:
Carbon & Argon = frontier. Carbon > Argon but might use more tokens. I mostly use Carbon now
Hydrogen = faster, more efficient model. Use for everyday tasks or as subagent. Our recommended upgrade from 3.8 Flash
what a week at @aiDotEngineer. thanks to @swyx, @Beccalytics and team for putting so many world class builders in one room and to @melvinjohnsonp for closing things out on stage.
shipping season is in full swing. see you at AIE Europe in Feb!
fun week of shipping. now it's time to build
big week of shipping for @GoogleAIStudio and @GoogleDeepMind
here's a quick recap
ai.studio to try everything :)

introducing Gemini 4 Hydrogen
Meet Gemini 4 Hydrogen: built for rapid coding, multimodal synthesis, and everyday workflows.
It finishes tasks 2.5x faster than 3.8 Flash and surpasses Argon on the @ArtificialAnlys Intelligence Index.

We wrote a practical Developer Guide for Gemini 4 Carbon covering API changes, long decode up to 1M tokens, and multi-agent patterns: aistudio.google.com/learn/ge…
Upgrading from Argon means just changing the id to gemini-4-carbon. I use medium thinking_level for almost everything. For bigger multi-file tasks, the new /swarm preview in @Antigravity creates a multi-agent team that can communicate via a message board. You can put Carbon on architecture and code review while 3.8 Flash works on parallel edits.

ok excited to launch a New Media program close to my heart:
the AIE Creator Associate Program!!!
With my podcast doing well and the AIE channel crossing 1m subs, I find myself getting asked the same questions from everyone - where do I get started?
Trade Offer:
- sign up to ai.engineer/associates
- We receive: your tweets/blog/video/photo/podcast coverage of 2-3 sessions
- Qualified applicants receive: ticket and chance of RT/inclusion in the official recap of AIE 2026
Little known fact: -I- started my own creator journey when @jessleenyc sponsored this exact program at a similar conference 10 years ago! my first blog -> more blogs -> my first talk -> more talks -> podcast -> more podcast -> AIE and Latent Space today
Tomorrow's keynotes and workshops are particularly hype and need creator coverage. Join us in SF tomorrow. Apply now!
AIE CODE starts tomorrow in San Francisco.
Nov 10: workshops + talks on agents and software factories.
Nov 11-12: conference talks + expo.
Coming for workshops? Check that your ticket includes the add-on.
