Summary
Google is reportedly nearing the launch of its long-awaited Gemini 4 model, after falling behind rival developers on flagship AI releases. In his first media appearance as head of Google's DeepMind division, Koray Kavukcuoglu said Gemini 4 is in its refinement stage and that the company aims to launch it "much earlier" than the end of the year.
Bubble analysis
This is about model release timing, not money. On its own it says nothing about whether AI investment is overheating — there are no capex, valuation or funding figures. The urgency of the model race does indirectly reflect the pressure to keep spending to stay competitive, but it sits at the periphery of the bubble debate.
