Google Shipped Gemini 4 Argon Without Ruling Out Severe Harm
Google put Gemini 4 Argon in paying customers' hands on October 13. The model card published the same day says Google cannot rule out serious biological or cyber harm from the unguarded model. Pro and Ultra subscribers can use Argon in the Gemini app. Developers pay $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens until November 30, when that price doubles. Google says its safeguards bring the remaining risk back under its own line. The card still says the capability may be there.
