On Tuesday, Google released Gemini 3<\/a>, its latest and most advanced foundation model, which is now immediately available through the Gemini app and AI search interface.<\/p>\n Coming just seven months after the Gemini 2.5 release<\/a>, the new model is Google\u2019s most capable LLM yet, and an immediate contender for the most capable AI tool on the market. The release also comes less than a week after OpenAI released GPT 5.1, and a mere two months after Anthropic released Sonnet 4.5 \u2014 a reminder of the blistering pace of frontier model development.<\/p>\n A more research-intensive version of the model, called Gemini 3 Deepthink, will also be made available to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the coming weeks, once it passes further rounds of safety testing.<\/p>\n \u201cWith Gemini 3, we\u2019re seeing this massive jump in reasoning,\u201d said Tulsee Doshi, Google\u2019s head of product for the Gemini model. \u201cIt\u2019s responding with a level of depth and nuance that we haven\u2019t seen before.\u201d<\/p>\n Some of that reasoning power is already registering on independent benchmarks. With a score of 37.4, the model marked the highest score on record on the Humanity\u2019s Last Exam benchmark<\/a>, meant to capture general reasoning and expertise. The previous high score, held by GPT-5 Pro, was 31.64. Gemini 3 also topped the leaderboard on LMArena, a human-led benchmark that measures user satisfaction.<\/p>\n According to Google, the Gemini app currently has more than 650 million monthly active users, and 13 million software developers have used the model as part of their workflow.<\/p>\n
