Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon at $2 per million input tokens

Carbon undercuts rival API prices while claiming top coding benchmarks.

★★★★★

Google has made its Gemini 4 Carbon model publicly available via Google AI Studio and the Gemini app, two weeks after a limited release to cybersecurity defenders. Priced at $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens, the model undercuts competitors like Claude Fable 5.2 and Opus 5.5. Google claims Carbon ranks first on CursorBench 4.0, WANDR, and AutomationBench, positioning it for complex coding and scientific reasoning. The launch includes a preview of a /swarm feature in Antigravity for coordinated agent teams, with pricing scheduled to rise to $4 and $20 on December 1st.

The day in short

Overnight, CoreWeave’s 2032 bond yield exceeded 16% and its five-year credit default swaps spiked above 1,289 basis points. This morning, SoftBank reported a fiscal second-quarter net loss of $7 billion, its first in nearly two years, driven by a $3.7 billion writedown for its U.S. Ohio data-center project. Also this morning, Google DeepMind used AlphaProof Code to mathematically prove key security properties of Signal’s cryptographic protocol. In the afternoon, Google released Gemini 4 Carbon, claiming it is its strongest model for high-intelligence tasks and undercutting the API pricing of Claude Fable 5.2 and Opus 5.5. By evening, Google previewed a /swarm feature in Antigravity and set the Gemini 4 Carbon price at $2 per million input tokens.

We don’t understand whether GDM intentionally trains on CoT

💎 Training on chain-of-thought may incentivize models to hide misaligned reasoning, undermining safety monitoring reliability.

The Gemini 4 Safety report states that components of its RL training procedure observe chain-of-thought (CoT) as context to up-weight reasoning, a mechanism the authors interpret as using auxiliary rewards or LLM judges to score partial CoT. The authors express concern that this process would incentivize models to suppress misaligned verbalizations and reduce CoT faithfulness, while noting that the cited Kaufmann et al. (2026) paper argues training on CoT is low-risk under specific conditions.

Google Finds that Technical Debt Can Derail Coding Agents Through "Agent Distraction"

💎 Stale code comments cause 70% more agent steps, proving technical debt actively degrades AI coding efficiency and cost.

Google senior staff software engineer Sam Saccone and senior staff data scientist Madhuri Garikapati report that AI coding agents suffer from "agent distraction" when ingesting stale technical debt, such as obsolete TODO comments. Their analysis of distributed traces indicates that 13% of sessions exposed agents to such references, causing unprompted detours in 6% of those cases, which resulted in 70% more steps, 77% more tokens, and 105% more wait time per session.
