GoKawiilGoogle launches Gemini 4 Carbon model with new agent 'swarm' tool
Google has made its Gemini 4 Carbon AI model available to the public after testing it with cybersecurity defenders for two weeks. The company describes it as its strongest model yet, aimed at complex coding and scientific research tasks, and is also previewing a 'swarm' feature on its Antigravity platform that turns one prompt into a coordinated group of AI agents. Carbon is available now through Google AI Studio, Gemini for business, and to Google AI Ultra subscribers, priced at an introductory $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The aggressive introductory pricing, roughly a fifth of OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra and a quarter of Anthropic's Fable 5.2, suggests Google is trying to undercut rivals on cost while competing on raw capability. Positioning Carbon alongside Argon as a tiered lineup could let Google capture both everyday coding work and the most demanding agentic tasks. The swarm feature also signals a broader industry push toward multi-agent systems as the next frontier beyond single-model chat assistants.
- Gemini 4 Carbon is now publicly available after a limited cybersecurity-focused preview.
- A new 'swarm' feature on Antigravity lets one prompt spawn multiple coordinated AI agents.
- Carbon launches at a steep discount versus OpenAI's and Anthropic's latest models, though prices will double by late November.
