    Gemini not beating the "can't release a model" allegations

      They're just following the current AI marketing playbook. "Our new model is simply too dangerous to release to the public right away" is now standard practice.

      They even gave their model a random nonsensical name suffix simply because OpenAI is now doing it, too. Monkey see, monkey do.

        I'm still at a loss as to what argon has to do with anything. Say what you will about Luna-Terra-Sol-Astra, or Haiku-Sonnet-Opus, they make sense. I don't see how Google can make sense of argon; it's in a fairly strange place in the periodic table...
