01 Oct 2026, 2:45 PM	Latent Space	6.0	[AINews] Gemini 4 Argon: GDM’s answer to Astra/Fable, with 1M output Google DeepMind introduced Gemini 4 Argon, claiming first place on 13 of 19 benchmarks against GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5, with a 1M-token output limit via the new Long Decode Continuation API feature. Standard pricing is $4/$20 per 1M input/output tokens, with a 50% introductory discount to $2/$10 and 95% off cached input. Access is limited to government users and trusted cyber defenders in the Fairwind Program, with broader developer, enterprise, and consumer access promised later. Why: The actionable details are gated: Argon is not generally available, and the 1M output is delivered via Long Decode Continuation, which pauses and resumes responses across calls, while Vals lists 262K max output. Don't re-architect around 1M single-call output yet; if you evaluate it later, compare the $4/$20 standard or $2/$10 intro pricing against your current model, and note cached input is 95% off. gemini-4-argon google-deepmind frontier-models long-context api-pricing ai-agents
