Google said in May that it expected to ship the model the following month.<\/p> <h2>What Google Said In May<\/h2> <p>Google announced the Gemini 3.5 series at I\/O and released 3.5 Flash the same day. On the flagship, Google\u2019s blog post said 3.5 Pro was already in internal use and added that the company looked \u201cforward to rolling it out next month.\u201d<\/p> <p>That post is dated May 19. Next month was June.<\/p> <p>As of publication, the Gemini API release notes carry no entry for a Gemini 3.5 Pro model.<\/p> <h2>What Bloomberg Reports Is Holding It Up<\/h2> <p>Julia Love and Davey Alba reported the delay, citing people familiar with the matter. Ten current and former employees described frustration inside the company, with concern that Google is losing ground while Anthropic and OpenAI ship models that outperform Gemini. The people declined to be named discussing internal concerns.<\/p> <p><iframe class=\"sej-iframe-auto-height\" id=\"in-content-iframe\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-json\/sscats\/v2\/tk\/Middle_Post_Text\"><\/iframe><\/p> <p>Google updated the data used to train Gemini late last month to improve its coding skills, and the results were disappointing, one of them said.<\/p> <p>A Google spokesperson told Bloomberg the company is \u201ccurrently testing 3.5 Pro\u201d with partners, along with an upgraded Flash model.<\/p> <h2>The Agentic Coding Gap Google Has Already Named<\/h2> <p>In May, SEJ covered Pichai saying Google was \u201ca bit behind\u201d the frontier on agentic coding, which he tied to Google not having the kind of developer-facing coding product that generates data for competitors.<\/p> <p>SEJ\u2019s June coverage of two senior departures from Google\u2019s AI org also cited Bloomberg reporting on concerns inside DeepMind about what Google offers businesses building AI coding tools.<\/p> <p>Pichai\u2019s comments show Google had already acknowledged trailing in agentic coding. Bloomberg now reports that broader coding performance is one factor holding up 3.5 Pro.<\/p> <h2>Why This Matters<\/h2> <p>The report doesn\u2019t point to an immediate change in Search. What it touches is Google\u2019s model timeline.<\/p> <p>At I\/O, Google made 3.5 Flash the default model in AI Mode globally. Google\u2019s materials didn\u2019t say 3.5 Pro would replace it, so a late flagship tells you nothing about the answers Search is generating today.<\/p> <p>On the timeline, Google missed the public rollout expectation it gave in May and, as of publication, hasn\u2019t announced a replacement date.<\/p> <h2>Looking Ahead<\/h2> <p>Google\u2019s statement to Bloomberg described testing with partners, which is not a rollout, and the company hasn\u2019t named a new month.<\/p> <p>Until it does, 3.5 Flash is the only model Google has released in the 3.5 series. Anything circulating about when Pro arrives traces back to reporting rather than to Google.<\/p> <hr\/> <p><em>Featured Image: Google<\/em><\/p> <\/div> <p>Generative AI,News#Gemini #Pro #Delayed #Coding #Bloomberg #Reports #sejournal #MattGSouthern1784244952<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google\u2019s Gemini 3.5 Pro is months behind schedule as the company works to improve its capabilities, particularly in coding, Bloomberg reported.
