Google unveils Gemini 3 AI model and Antigravity IDE

Google has released Gemini 3 Pro, its latest flagship AI model, emphasizing improved reasoning, visual outputs, and coding capabilities. The company also introduced Antigravity, an AI-first integrated development environment. Both are available in limited preview starting today.

Google announced Gemini 3 Pro on November 18, 2025, as the first member of its Gemini 3 family, positioning it as a step toward artificial general intelligence. The model features expanded simulated reasoning abilities and enhanced understanding of text, images, and video. It tops the LMArena leaderboard with an ELO score of 1,501, surpassing Gemini 2.5 Pro by 50 points.

Benchmarks highlight Gemini 3's improvements in factuality and performance. It scored 72.1 percent on the SimpleQA Verified test, a record for general knowledge questions. On Humanity’s Last Exam, testing PhD-level knowledge, it achieved 37.5 percent without tool use. In math and coding, records include 23.4 percent on MathArena Apex, 1487 ELO on WebDev Arena, and 76.2 percent on SWE-bench Verified.

Google claims Gemini 3 reduces sycophancy, delivering more concise and task-focused outputs. It enables richer interactions, such as triaging emails to create to-do lists, summaries, and action buttons—going beyond text-based responses in prior models. New generative interfaces include visual layout, a magazine-style UI with images, and dynamic view, which uses coding skills to build custom interfaces like a web app on Vincent van Gogh.

A forthcoming Deep Think mode scored 41 percent on Humanity’s Last Exam during testing. Alongside the model, Google launched Antigravity, an agentic IDE available in preview on Windows, Mac, and Linux. It acts as a 'mission control' for AI agents powered by Gemini, Claude Sonnet 4.5, or GPT-OSS, allowing autonomous tasks across editor, terminal, and browser, with verifiable 'Artifacts' for user oversight.

Gemini 3 Pro rolls out experimentally in the Gemini app, AI Studio, Vertex AI, and API. It integrates into Google Search's AI Mode for subscribers, enhancing queries with generative tools. AI Overviews will use it for complex searches, with broader availability expected soon.

What people are saying

Discussions on X highlight excitement over Gemini 3's superior reasoning, coding, and multimodal features, with users praising Antigravity as an innovative agentic IDE that integrates editor, terminal, and browser for autonomous development. Positive reactions emphasize its potential to revolutionize coding workflows, while skeptical voices note it resembles existing tools like Cursor and question reliability in practical tasks, such as code execution and instruction following. Neutral posts share announcements and first impressions from developers and AI enthusiasts.
