Kim Isenberg posted that the Wall Street Journal reports Google will release Gemini 3.8 Flash tomorrow, Wednesday. The article states the model will presumably match Opus 5 performance. In head-to-head testing inside Google’s internal Jetski coding tool, engineers preferred it to Anthropic’s Opus model, according to people cited by WSJ. A generated headline in the post reads Google Prepares Gemini 3.8 Flash Release, Beats Opus. All details trace to the single social post referencing the WSJ piece.
