TL;DR Summary
Gizmodo, citing anonymous Wall Street Journal sources, reports Google DeepMind is close to releasing Gemini 3.8 Flash (aka Skimaki), a coding-first AI designed to run faster and cheaper than trillion-parameter models. The move follows Demis Hassabis stepping down as DeepMind CEO and signals a pivot toward more competitive coding-oriented AI, with Brin involved in accelerating shipping.
