Advancements in Google's AI Technology

Google’s AI efforts & Gemini Pro 2.5 take a major step forward with updates to Deep Research, new Agent2Agent protocol (A2A) & more. Sadly, OpenAI teases o3 and o4 but delays GPT-5. 

Plus, Meta’s new Llama 4 models are out but have issues, Midjourney v7’s debut, John Carmack’s smackdown of an AI video game engine hater, Gavin’s deep dive into OpenAI 4o Image Generation formats & the weirdest robot horse concept you’ve ever seen.
