Google don release new Gemini model wey dem call Flash and Flash-Lite, plus special one wey be Flash Cyber wey go help find and fix security problems for software. According to di blog post, dis model dey fast and cheap, so developers fit use am to build agents wey go do work for production.
Flash model get better coding and knowledge work, and e dey use fewer steps and tool calls to finish multi-step tasks. E also get enhanced safety safeguards for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and cyber misuse. Di model dey resist jailbreak well-well, but e no dey refuse beneficial uses.
Flash-Lite na for low-latency and high-throughput tasks like agentic search and document processing. E dey run at 350 output tokens per second, and e get strong price-to-performance ratio. Developers fit configure am to prioritize low-latency or high thinking levels for complex tasks. E get computer use as built-in tool.
Flash Cyber na fine-tuned version of Flash wey dem design to find, validate, and patch cybersecurity vulnerabilities faster and cheaper than big models. E dey available only for governments and trusted partners through CodeMender, wey be Google code security agent. Dis model fit scan large codebase and analyze many code paths to discover and fix critical flaws.
Google test Flash Cyber for production commit scanning pipeline for Chrome, and e find remote code execution vulnerabilities for public APIs and memory-corruption vulnerability for sensitive production service. E even generate 100% reliable exploit wey bypass standard mitigation techniques like ASLR and W^X.
Google get over 700,000 open-source vulnerabilities and 10 years of OSS-Fuzz results to train di model. Di model learn to operate industry-standard tools and read millions of lines of code for large projects like Chromium. Google say dis model go help defenders secure software faster.
