Google launches Gemini 4 Carbon with a ‘significant leap’ in cybersecurity

Google has released its latest frontier model, Gemini 4 Carbon, offering “significant gains” in coding, agentic tasks, and cybersecurity. In an announcement on Wednesday, Google highlights Carbon’s top spot on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index (v5.0) benchmark, with Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra trailing behind.

谷歌发布了其最新的前沿模型 Gemini 4 Carbon，在编码、代理任务和网络安全方面实现了“显著提升”。在周三的一份公告中，谷歌强调了 Carbon 在人工智能分析指数（v5.0）基准测试中占据榜首，Claude Opus 5.5 和 GPT-6 Astra 紧随其后。

The new Gemini 4 Carbon model offers improvements over Argon, which Google released earlier this month. It’s currently only available to a select group of cybersecurity defense companies, but it will eventually expand to other partners in its Fairwind Program.

新的 Gemini 4 Carbon 模型相较于谷歌本月初发布的 Argon 有所改进。目前它仅向少数几家网络安全防御公司开放，但最终将扩展至其“顺风计划”（Fairwind Program）中的其他合作伙伴。

The company says Carbon reflects the “pace at which we’re pushing the frontier forward,” coming with a “significant leap” in cyberdefense that makes it better at finding vulnerabilities and generating secure code. Carbon currently holds the number one spot on SEC-bench Pro, a benchmark that measures an AI model’s ability to discover real-world bugs, and ExploitGym, which measures how a model can turn a vulnerability into exploits.

该公司表示，Carbon 反映了“我们推动前沿发展的步伐”，其在网络防御方面的“重大飞跃”使其在发现漏洞和生成安全代码方面表现更佳。Carbon 目前在 SEC-bench Pro（衡量人工智能模型发现现实世界漏洞能力的基准）和 ExploitGym（衡量模型如何将漏洞转化为攻击手段的基准）中均占据首位。

Google says Gemini 4 Carbon is built for completing longer tasks, adding that its internal teams have seen it “run for days to persist through dead ends to tackle complex, multi-step engineering tasks.” It’s also better at avoiding shortcuts, resisting prompt injection attacks, and collaborating with users, according to Google. Carbon is supposed to offer more “transparency and honesty” as well, by cutting “unsupported claims” by two times when compared to Argon.

谷歌称 Gemini 4 Carbon 专为完成更长任务而设计，并补充说其内部团队观察到它能够“运行数天，在陷入僵局时坚持不懈，以解决复杂的多步骤工程任务”。据谷歌介绍，它在避免捷径、抵御提示词注入攻击以及与用户协作方面也表现得更好。此外，与 Argon 相比，Carbon 通过将“无根据的声明”减少了一半，旨在提供更高的“透明度和诚实度”。

It will launch at the same competitive introductory price as Argon, at $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens.

它将以与 Argon 相同的竞争性入门价格推出，即每百万输入 Token 收费 2 美元，每百万输出 Token 收费 10 美元。
