Google Gemini 3.5 Pro Launch Delayed Amid Engineering Improvements

The Gemini 3.5 Pro model, Google's flagship reasoning model, is expected to be launched soon and take on competitors like OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude.

However, reports suggest that the launch has been delayed by months due to engineers working to improve the model's capabilities, particularly in coding.

The delay has caused a decline in GOOGL stock last month, with some users speculating that the new model might be released along with Google's flagship Pixel 11 series at its Made by Google event on August 12.

A prediction market on Kalshi has seen over $320,000 bet on when the Gemini 3.5 Pro will be released, with a probability of 46% that it will be out before August 16 and 76% that it will be released before August 31.
