Introducing Gemini 3.8 Flash and 3.8 Flash Cyber

Publisher preview · OZZZER analysis pending editorial review.
Our newest Gemini models deliver next-generation intelligence for agentic workflows and cybersecurity. Building on the momentum of 3.7 Flash from three weeks ago and marking our third Flash release in only six weeks, today we’re introducing Gemini 3.8, our best reasoning and coding model yet, at the same speed and low cost of 3.7. Gemini 3.8 introduces 2 variants: While tailored for different deployment environments, both of today's releases are powered by the same foundational intelligence, and further accelerated by long-running agentic loops designed to recursively evaluate and refine the underlying models.
The significant coding and reasoning gains across this shared core were driven by a number of innovations, including rigorous training in the highly demanding domain of cybersecurity. Gemini 3.8 Flash delivers substantial gains from 3.7 Flash, often approaching the performance of higher-cost frontier models. On DeepSWE v1.1 (Long-Horizon Software Engineering) 3.8 Flash outperforms most larger frontier models in autonomously solving complex engineering problems end to end, only at a fraction of the cost.
Additionally, 3.8 Flash exhibits the dependability required for critical enterprise autonomy, across specialized knowledge domains.…
