Google has released Gemini 4 Carbon, its new frontier AI model. In a fresh benchmark comparison it scores just behind Anthropic's Claude, but reviewers say it delivers far better value for money, offering comparable performance at a lower cost. The release adds to competition among top-tier AI models, with commentary focusing on the trade-off between raw performance and price.

Why now: The model's release has just been benchmarked against rivals, prompting debate over whether near-top performance at lower cost shifts the competitive balance.
