Gemini 3.7 Flash Review: Google's Cheap Model Isn’t Dumb Anymore
Related
Google's flagship model, Gemini 3.5 Flash, natively supports PC control, unlocking enterprise-level intelligent agent automation.
According to Beating's monitoring, Google has integrated the Computer Use functionality as a built-in tool directly into its main model, Gemini 3.5 Flash. Before native integration, developers had to use a dedicated Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model to execute agent tasks. With native integration, developers and enterprise users can directly control devices through the Gemini API or the Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (formerly Vertex AI platform), simplifying agent development architecture. The built-in Computer Use tool receives screenshots from browsers, mobile devices, or desktop environments, performs visual perception and step-by-step reasoning, and then outputs operation commands such as mouse clicks, keyboard input, scrolling, and menu navigation to complete long-process automated tasks such as continuous software testing and cross-web data collection. To facilitate debugging and auditing, the model generates commands with an "intent" field to explain the logic of each operation. To address the risk of tooltip injection that agents may encounter in real-world network environments, Google has conducted targeted adversarial training on its models and provides two optional safeguards: mandatory human approval for irreversible operations such as payments and file deletions; and automatic task termination if indirect injection commands are detected in screenshots. Browserbase currently offers an online hosted demo environment (gemini.browserbase.com), and Google has also open-sourced a reference implementation called computer-use-preview on GitHub.
Google's video model reclaims the top spot: Gemini Omni Flash tops Video Arena rankings.
According to Beating, Google DeepMind's newly released video generation model, Gemini Omni Flash, topped the Video Arena blind test leaderboard with an Elo score of 1404. This new model leads ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 Mini, which previously held the top spot, by a full 101 points, setting a new record for the largest score difference on this leaderboard. Video Arena, a leaderboard based on blind human voting, has previously been dominated by ByteDance's Seedance series models in the top three. Seedance 2.0 Mini, with its better multi-camera stability and faster generation speed, ranked first with 1303 points. Gemini Omni Flash's rise to the top signifies that Google's video generation model has overtaken competitors like ByteDance within six months, leaping from a lagging position during the Veo era to the forefront.
Google and OpenAI Debut Super Fast AI Models—Gemini 3.7 Flash Is Out, But GPT-5.6 Sol Ultrafast Is Invite-Only
Google's model is live and built for cheap agents; OpenAI's is quicker but locked behind a waitlist.
Due to insufficient computing power, Google has restricted Meta's use of the Gemini AI model.
PANews reported on June 28th that, according to Jinshi, Google has restricted Meta's use of its Gemini AI models, as Meta's computing power exceeds Google's capacity. The report states that Google informed Meta around March that it could not meet Meta's demand for the full amount of Gemini computing power it sought to purchase, adding that this shortfall disrupted and delayed some of Meta's internal AI projects. The report also notes that several other Google customers were affected, but to a lesser extent. The Financial Times reports that Meta was particularly hard hit due to its unusually high demand for Google's models.
Myanmar's AI-driven telecom fraud industry exposed: Starlink becomes key infrastructure, encrypted payments and OpenAI/Google models incorporated into toolchains.
A leaked investigative report from a Myanmar scam Odaily park reveals that global telecom fraud is rapidly evolving towards an "AI industrialization + cross-border encrypted payment" system. These fraud networks use cryptocurrencies to transfer funds and employ automated tools based on large models for multilingual script generation, identity spoofing, and emotional manipulation. The investigation shows that these systems heavily utilize OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini to support "large-scale social media fraud," while funds are rapidly laundered and transferred through on-chain payments and cross-border channels, forming a two-tiered structure of "AI customer acquisition + encrypted settlement," enabling the fraud industry to achieve high automation and transnational expansion capabilities. Furthermore, Elon Musk's Starlink has become the leading network service provider in the Myanmar scam industrial park, with US ISPs handling nearly one-fifth of the park's traffic. In response to the allegations, OpenAI stated that fraudsters using ChatGPT behave in a manner highly similar to ordinary users, making identification difficult. However, they have been using behavioral pattern recognition and risk control systems to ban approximately 100,000 suspicious accounts monthly. Google stated that its AI models have security safeguards in place and emphasized its commitment to "responsible AI development" to limit the use of tools for fraudulent and other illegal purposes.

Myanmar's telecom fraud AI industrialization exposed: Starlink becomes key infrastructure, encrypted payments and OpenAI/Google models are incorporated into the toolchain.
According to a report by Red Star News, citing Mars Finance, an investigative report leaked from a scam industrial park in Myanmar reveals that global telecom fraud is rapidly evolving towards an "AI industrialization + cross-border encrypted payment" system. These fraud networks use cryptocurrencies to transfer funds and employ automated tools based on large models for multilingual script generation, identity spoofing, and emotional manipulation. The investigation shows that these systems heavily utilize OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini to support "large-scale social fraud," while funds are rapidly laundered and transferred through on-chain payments and cross-border channels, forming a two-tiered structure of "AI customer acquisition + encrypted settlement," enabling the fraud industry to achieve a high degree of automation and transnational expansion. Furthermore, Elon Musk's Starlink has become the leading network service provider in the Myanmar scam industrial park, with US ISPs handling nearly one-fifth of the park's traffic. In response to the allegations, OpenAI stated that the behavior of fraudsters using ChatGPT is highly similar to that of ordinary users, making identification difficult, but they have already blocked approximately 100,000 suspicious accounts monthly through behavioral pattern recognition and risk control systems. Google stated that its AI models have safety barriers in place and emphasized its commitment to "responsible AI development" to limit the tools from being used for illegal purposes such as fraud.
