Google releases Gemini 4 Argon: benchmarks match OpenAI and Anthropic, no clear lead

Google Gemini 4 Argon closes the gap with OpenAI and Anthropic but doesn't take a clear lead

Google released Gemini 4 Argon, its new frontier model. On several benchmarks it matches OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra and Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.1, but it does not take a clear lead.

Why it matters: It gathers third-party benchmark and pricing data, so you can compare Gemini 4 Argon's capability and cost against OpenAI's and Anthropic's frontier models.
