I'm glad the report exists and is thorough but honestly, the contents are not reassuring. In particular, the paper acknowledges that the model is VERY aware of being in an eval, basically across the board. So how can we take these results at face value?

Alignment eval results are not a load bearing part of our loss of control risk assessment, the key part is that we believe our monitors would catch anything bad. See more: storage.googleapis.com/deepmind-media

Don't miss out on this deal!

We need you being thorough on the safety reporting and this nervous biology near-stander deeply appreciates it.

Is Argon looping?

217 pages!

Monitorability is the section that ages best. Every capability number in it expires at the next launch.

Um, what? Where did those transcripts go?

i haven't read it yet, but kudos, genuine thanks - good reports/system cards are extremely helpful

The monitorability section is honestly the most interesting part, way more practical than another generic alignment checklist.

i shipped a model with the safety doc as the last slide of the pitch deck

Good to see the safety side get attention too. We covered the capability side: Google's table has Argon on top in 14 of 19 scores, but not a clean sweep. youtu.be/qCx6kk1-YkM #Gemini #AISafety

Google Is Back: Gemini 4 Argon Tops GPT-6 and Opus 5.5 on 14 of 19 Benchmarks

I can't stop laughing. I use Openrouter MCP directly in Chatgpt sometimes to have a side opinion or just for GPT to play with other models, and today I offered to poke new Gemini 4 Argon. Pic 1 is GPT's prompt and Pic 2 is Argon's answer. First turn, no jailbreak or anything.
