The Keyword (Google blog)

Google's announcement of Gemini 4 Argon on its Keyword blog. The companion cites its report that a team of autonomous agents had found memory optimizations across Google's data centers, freeing over 300 TiB of memory once rolled out. It supports premise 2 of the long arc (C3): agents already tune their own substrate, though they do not yet build it.
