Gemini 3.5 Flash

Google is positioning Gemini 3.5 Flash as a fast model option for agentic coding, research, and multi-step automation tasks. Why it matters: Speed and latency increasingly determine whether AI agents are practical for everyday workflows, not just raw benchmark performance.

Try this: Run the same structured research or code-maintenance prompt through the model and compare latency, tool-use reliability, and output quality against the current default model.
