Google unveils Gemini 3 Pro with native multimodal understanding and faster inference

Google has launched its latest AI model, Gemini 3 Pro, featuring a significant architectural overhaul for enhanced reasoning, multimodality, and coding capabilities. This new model processes text, audio, and video streams simultaneously as a unified representation, a departure from previous models that stitched together separate pipelines. Gemini 3 Pro also boasts up to 3x faster inference speeds due to speculative decoding and matches Claude Opus 4.8 on coding benchmarks, positioning Google strongly in the competitive AI landscape.
