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

    1. Androider · · focus · HN ↗
      My Gemini app (updated today) and <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gemini.google.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gemini.google.com&#x2F; has _3.6_ as the latest selectable model, as a paying Pro user in the US. How is that even possible? Gemini 3.7 was released in August, 3.8 early September. What is going on over there?

        In my consumer gmail account with Pro, I see:

          3.5 Flash-Lite
          3.8 Flash
          3.1 Pro
        
        In both a paid Google Workspace account (without the AI addon) and a free &#x27;GSuite&#x27; account, I see:

          3.6 Flash
          3.6 Thinking
          3.1 Pro

          We&#x27;re on Enterprise Standard, our renewal was up like 50% because &quot;Gemini is included now think of all the added value&quot; yet they won&#x27;t even give us the latest models. I tried hard to champion Gemini internally once every user had it included, yet we ended up spending extra on Claude because Gemini has stagnated. Even the included usage for the Gemini CLI was taken away and now requires an extra subscription. I wonder if we we&#x27;ll even see Gemini 4 before 2028. It&#x27;s ridiculous.

            It is ridiculous. It took months for 3.1 Pro to become available in an enterprise account.

            The excuse was it was still “in preview” and the enterprise didn’t opt in to the preview channel.

            With Google, it’s either in beta or deprecated.
