Google I/O: Gemini 3.5 Pro Delayed, Fans Groan

Google's next big AI model, Gemini 3.5 Pro, won't be released until next month. This news drew groans from attendees at the Google I/O conference on Tuesday. Many expected the powerful model to launch sooner. CEO Sundar Pichai stated it's already showing "great improvements." Google also unveiled other products at I/O, including Spark and Gemini 3.5 Flash AI models. The industry is closely watching the release of 3.5 Pro, especially after Google's last AI model, Gemini 3, exceeded expectations. This delay means users will wait a bit longer to access Google's most powerful AI model.
