Google will release Gemini 3.8 Flash as early as Wednesday.
According to a report by Wall Street Journal reporter Erin Woo citing employee sources, Google’s artificial intelligence research department is set to release a new model, Gemini 3.8 Flash, featuring significantly enhanced coding capabilities. Internally codenamed "Skimaki," the model could go live as early as Wednesday, September 2. In comparative testing against Google’s internal coding tool Jetski, company engineers demonstrated a stronger preference for the new model than for Anthropic’s Opus.
