- Google DeepMind publishes a detailed Frontier Safety Framework and a 217-page safety report for Gemini 4 Argon that says it cannot rule out critical cyber and biological capability. Containment Board, summary
- Gemini 4 Argon was tested before release by independent groups including Faculty, NIST CAISSI measured cyber and biological capabilities and safeguards, UK AISI and Redwood Research advised on loss of control scenarios, and Gray Swan tested prompt injection. Containment Board, outside testing
- The Gemini 4 Argon model card and safety report state that critical cyber and biological levels cannot be ruled out, and the framework says Google aims to inform governments if a critical level poses unmitigated public risk. Containment Board, incident disclosure
- Google DeepMind says it cannot rule out that Gemini 4 Argon reached its cybersecurity Critical Capability Level and estimates unmitigated access could cut the cost of severe historical cyberattacks by about 16.7 times on average. Containment Board, notable facts
- Gemini 4 Argon passed 14 of 15 stealth and situational awareness challenges, so Google could not rule out the matching Tracked Capability Level. Containment Board, notable facts
