an interesting library the other day that I hadn’t heard of before. PythoC is a Domain-Specific Language (DSL) compiler that allows developers to write C programs using standard Python syntax. It takes a statically-typed subset of Python code and compiles it directly down to native machine code via LLVM IR (Low Level Virtual Machine Intermediate …

Today, we’re introducing Gemini 3.1 Flash-Lite, our fastest and most cost-efficient Gemini 3 series model. Built for high-volume developer workloads at scale, 3.1 Flash-Lite delivers high quality for its price and model tier. Starting today, 3.1 Flash-Lite is rolling out in preview to developers via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio and for enterprises …
to be the state-of-the-art object detection algorithm, looked to become obsolete thanks to the appearance of other methods like SSD (Single Shot Multibox Detector), DSSD (Deconvolutional Single Shot Detector), and RetinaNet. Finally, after two years since the introduction of YOLOv2, the authors decided to improve the algorithm where they eventually came up with the next …

In August of last year, our Gemini Image model, Nano Banana, became a viral sensation, redefining image generation and editing. Then in November, we released Nano Banana Pro, offering users advanced intelligence and studio-quality creative control. Today, we’re bringing the best of both worlds to users across Google. Introducing Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash …
is one of the earliest and most iconic games in the history of digital entertainment. In its classic form, the game simulates a table tennis match with two paddles that move vertically across the screen to hit a bouncing ball. Each of the player controls a paddle and has to bounce the ball back to …
