Today we’re opening applications for the Life Sciences Verification Program.
Through the LSVP, life science professionals can use our models—including, for the first time, Mythos—with a new set of safeguards designed to enable the full range of biology-related work. We designed these new safeguards to provide a better experience for biologists and more protection from risk of misuse.
The program is launching in beta for teams of all kinds—from academic labs to startups, pharma companies, and more. We will continue to improve the program and expand access to individual Pro and Max plans over time.

Every second, millions of genome switches dictate how our cells function and adapt. 🧬
Working with @ScienceStowers, Atlas mapped 2,500+ regulatory patterns uncovering the DNA sequences that act as biological switches and volume dials to turn gene activity up or down across hundreds of cell types.
These discoveries are just the beginning.
AlphaGenome Atlas is freely accessible to empower researchers everywhere to decode the genetic causes of disease. Explore the database → https://t.co/j1T7iTF1K6
Researchers at @BroadInstitute, @UniofExeter, and beyond are already using AlphaGenome Atlas to better identify potential disease-causing DNA variants and interpret their role. 🧵 https://t.co/j4OuSz0Djv
We're sharing our new framework for tracking, investigating, and disclosing instances of model misalignment at OpenAI.
The framework sets criteria and timelines for public disclosure, including when we haven’t yet fully explained or mitigated the behavior. More complex cases may require longer investigation or coordination with third parties.
We’ll prioritize examples that reveal new misalignment mechanisms, meaningful changes in known behavior, or findings that challenge assumptions about safety or mitigation.
Alongside the framework, we’re publishing six reports on instances of misaligned behavior we’ve observed during the training or evaluation of our models in the last six months.
This is a starting point. We’ll refine the process through experience and public feedback, and share more reports on an ongoing basis.

Introducing our most advanced Gemini Audio models yet 🗣
Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking let you speak, collaborate, and execute tasks seamlessly, meaning conversing with AI just got a lot more natural.
So, what’s the difference between these two models? Let’s break it down:
— Gemini 3.8 Live is built for scale, speed, and cost efficiency. It can handle mid-sentence interruptions, transitions across 97 languages on the fly, and understands visual context. Figure out how to fix a broken bike chain, or deal with a leaky pipe just by pointing your camera at the problem area in Search Live for step-by-step audio instructions.
— Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking goes one step further to bring increased intelligence to your most complex tasks. It reasons and speaks in parallel, even narrating its progress as it works. This lets it handle multi-step, behind-the-scenes projects, like planning an event, without ever losing the conversational flow.
Watch how Gemini 3.8 Live combines real-time video and voice inputs in Search Live to tackle hands-on DIY plumbing tasks step by step 👇
Gemini 3.8 Live is rolling out to:
— Consumers: in Search Live
— Developers: in public preview in the Gemini API via @googleaistudio
— Enterprises: in private preview via Gemini Enterprise (coming soon to Gemini Enterprise Customer Experience)
Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking is rolling out to:
— Consumers: in Gemini Live in the @GeminiApp, plus Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in @GoogleWorkspace in @GoogleDocs, and all Google AI subscribers in @gmail and Keep
— Developers: in public preview in the Gemini API via @GoogleAIStudio
— Enterprises: in private preview via Gemini Enterprise (coming soon to Gemini Enterprise Customer Experience and @GoogleWorkspace business customers)

Watch how we used 3.8 Live Extended Thinking to act as a programming tutor.
Both models feature:
🔵 Upgraded reasoning
🔵 Near real-time visual understanding
🔵 Automatic detection for 97 languages
🔵 Background tool calling without disrupting your chat
For your most difficult tasks, 3.8 Live Extended Thinking adds increased performance and precision – narrating task progress to keep the conversation going.
Try it now in Gemini Live in the @GeminiApp or start building with the Gemini API via @GoogleAIStudio.

We’re introducing Gemini 3.8 Live and 3.8 Live Extended Thinking – our best conversational AI.
The models talk, think, and handle tasks in the background without breaking your flow. 🧵
Giving teams a look ahead at rapidly changing weather helps them balance power grids and match clean energy to everyday consumer demand. 🌍
Find out more about WeatherNext 3 → https://t.co/L0Aj0dracJ
Because conditions can shift quickly, WeatherNext 3 updates every single hour:
💨 For wind farms: Predicts speed and direction at turbines as high as 100m to project power generation.
☀️ For solar farms: Forecasts cloud cover and radiation to estimate sunlight levels reaching solar panels.
Weather forecasts play a critical role in the transition to renewables.
WeatherNext 3 provides grid operators as well as wind and solar power producers with predictions for turbine-height wind speeds and solar radiation, enabling smarter, cleaner energy planning. 🧵
How do you build personalized AI tech that truly understands what matters to you?
With Dreambeans from @GoogleLabs, we're safely connecting the dots across your digital life. Instead of siloing pieces of data one app at a time, Dreambeans gathers details from connected sources like @Gmail, Calendar, Search, @GeminiApp, and through face grouping in your @googlephotos. It might notice your friend Beth's birthday is coming up, generate a one-of-a-kind illustrated story of the two of you, and surface the perfect gift ideas.
Rather than doomscrolling an endless feed, you’ll get a daily in-app notification from Dreambeans when your customized “stories” are ready. And when a story clicks with you, you can tap the illustrated tile to find additional info and direct links to the next step, whether that’s watching a movie trailer or buying a suggested gift.
This experience is opt-in, transparent, and protected by strict privacy filters. And because you are always in control, you can simply tap the "thumbs down" button on any story if a suggestion misses the mark, helping the system learn what is actually useful to you.
