Google rolled out Gemini 3 on Tuesday, pushing its newest AI model directly into Search, consumer apps and developer tools in the company’s most expansive launch to date. 

Chief Executive Sundar Pichai called it “our most intelligent model yet,” framing the release as a turning point in how Google integrates AI across its products.

The company is embedding Gemini 3 into Search’s AI Mode from day one, giving users access to more advanced reasoning and richer visual responses without waiting for a phased introduction. 

It will also appear immediately in the Gemini app, AI Studio, Vertex AI and other Cloud tools, marking the first time Google has deployed a flagship model simultaneously across its consumer and enterprise ecosystems.

In his keynote, Google CEO Sundar Pichai highlighted how quickly Google has iterated since the first Gemini release two years ago, noting that the model now sits at the heart of Search, the Gemini app, Cloud products, and tools for millions of developers.

Gemini 3 arrives in three versions. The main model, Gemini 3 Pro now in preview, and a higher-capacity Deep Think mode that remains under additional safety testing. 

Google said the model improves long-context understanding, multimodal analysis and complex task handling. In product demonstrations, it translated handwritten material, summarized long videos, built interactive interfaces and handled multi-step planning requests.

One user on X wrote that the speed of progress was “honestly amazing,” recalling that their first experience with Bard made it seem like Google had already lost the AI race. “But today things are completely different,” the post read, adding “big respect to Sundar Pichai and the Google AI team for turning it around.”

Another user captured the increasingly heated rivalry across AI labs, calling Gemini 3 “insanely capable,” particularly praising its multimodal improvements and “vibe coding” abilities. 

“The agentic era is heating up fast,” the post added, before signing off with a competitive flourish: “Looking forward to putting it through its paces. May the best model win! P.S. Grok says hi from xA, we’re just getting started.”

The Gemini app is receiving its own update with more interactive layouts and a new agent feature that can automate inbox clean-up, trip planning and other multi-step instructions. 

For enterprise users, Google said the model will support applications such as contract drafting, procurement workflows and training systems through Cloud integrations.

Meanwhile, the launch also introduced Google Antigravity, a new agent-focused development environment that gives AI agents direct access to an editor, terminal and browser.

The company said Antigravity is designed for software workflows where AI autocompletes code, plans tasks, executes them and documents the results.

Safety controls remain a visible part of the rollout. Google said Gemini 3 has undergone its broadest evaluation yet, with improvements in resisting prompt manipulation and avoiding overly agreeable responses. 

The release comes as the company faces pressure to show it can keep pace with rivals pushing forward on autonomy, multimodal reasoning and agent-driven development.
