The Edition No. 41
Google released Gemini 4 Hydrogen, a faster and cheaper model for everyday coding and agent work, rolling it out globally in the Gemini API, AI Studio, the Gemini app and Google Search at $1.50 per million input tokens and $7.50 per million output tokens. Google says Hydrogen edges out its Gemini 4 Argon frontier model on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, and it added an Orchestrator option in Google Antigravity that switches between Hydrogen and Gemini 4 Carbon within a single session. SpaceX said it plans to invest more than $74 billion in two AI supercomputing campuses, more than $24 billion at Starbase in Texas and about $50 billion in Cochise County, Arizona, where the project still needs county approval. Separately, Public Citizen and three other nonprofits sued Anthropic, Google, Meta, OpenAI and SpaceXSI in San Francisco Superior Court, asking a judge to freeze development of more advanced AI models, the AP reported.
