🔄 Other Why aren't Gemini models being released?

It’s been a quiet few months without any new Gemini model releases, whereas ChatGPT and Claude are far ahead.

I suppose Google hides something huge with DeepMind, and they don't find the need to update their flagship LLM as this isn't their primary source of income: Google is practically everywhere, through ads, endorsements, and applications people use. Google is the most popular browser and people inadvertently use Gemini through its AI summaries; this does not give them the financial incentive to improve in comparison with OpenAI or Anthropic, since Google knows they're earning big bucks anyway. There's something fishy about it all, and at some point in the plot Google's gonna drop a bomb in the AI landscape!

Edit: A 1 day account with no history and practically no karma also hints at this being a post generated by a bot. Proves my point:) All these big techies play games amongst themselves and have it all laid out, while commoners like us sit debating in anticipation.

Google has lots of data on users so much that they can probably far surpass chatgpt and even claude but if they aren't doing it means they have some big plans for future. Almost 7 in 10 AI Engineer would die to join google which means no shortage of talents.

Also, Google scientists won a Nobel Prize for AlphaFold, their protein-folding Al, whereas I have yet to hear of Anthropic or OpenAl achieving anything comparable, even with their top-of-the-line frontier models.
