    Ideogram says its new model can edit part of an image without messing up the rest

    Ideogram released its new model Ideogram 4.5, claiming it modifies only the image regions a user specifies while leaving the rest unchanged, addressing the artifact problem after repeated edits. The model offers four quality tiers costing 0.8 to 22 cents per image, with native 2K resolution, and is live on the Ideogram platform and API. Partners include Picsart, Runway, Pika and Leonardo AI, and the company says an open-weights version is coming soon.

    Google releases Gemini 4 Argon, called its most powerful model yet

    Google released its new model Gemini 4 Argon, saying it excels at cybersecurity, coding, and research, and can autonomously discover, verify, and fix critical software vulnerabilities. The model was specifically trained on defensive cybersecurity tasks and is currently available only to select cybersecurity partners through the Fairwind security program; Google, citing Vals' model index, says it leads OpenAI GPT-6 Astra and Anthropic's Fable and Opus on multiple benchmarks.

    Google announces Gemini 4 Argon AI model, but you can't use it yet

    Google announced its new model Gemini 4 Argon, calling it industry-leading in coding, knowledge work and cybersecurity, but it remains in limited testing and is not yet available to general users. Google is already using it heavily internally: Argon helped save 300 TiB of data center memory using fleet-wide telemetry, and its agents have migrated over 800,000 lines of C/C++ code, including the Fuchsia OS Zircon kernel, to Rust.
