Google took the wraps off its latest AI model, Gemini 3.1 Pro, on Thursday, calling it a “step forward in core reasoning.” The software giant says its latest model is smarter and more capable for complex problem-solving.
Google shared a series of bookmarks and examples of the latest model’s capabilities, and is rolling out Gemini 3.1 to a series of products for consumers, enterprise and developers.
The overall AI model landscape seems to change weekly. Google’s release comes just a few days after Anthropic dropped the latest version of Claude, Sonnet 4.6, which can operate a computer at a human baseline level.
Benchmarks of Gemini 3.1
Google shared some details about AI model benchmarks for Gemini 3.1 Pro.
The announcement blog post highlights that the Gemini 3.1 Pro benchmark for the ARC-AGI-2 test for solving abstract reasoning puzzles sits at 77.1%. This is noticeably higher than Gemini 3 Pro’s 31.1% score for the same test.
The ARC-AGI-2 benchmark is one of multiple improvements coming from Gemini 3.1 Pro, Google says.
3.1 Pro enhancements
Gemini 3.1 can create animated SVG files that are ready to be added to your website and scale without the loss of quality.
With better benchmarks nearly across the board, Google highlighted some of the ways that translate in general use:
Code-based animations: The latest Gemini model can easily create animated SVG images that are scalable without quality loss and ready to be added to websites with a text prompt.
Creative coding: Gemini 3.1 Pro generated an entire website based on a character from Emily Brontë’s novel Wuthering Heights, if she were a landscape photographer showing off her portfolio.
Interactive design: 3.1 Pro was used to create a 3D interactive starling murmuration that allows the flock to be controlled in an assortment of ways, all while a soundscape is generated that changes with the movement of the birds.
Availability
As of Thursday, Gemini 3.1 Pro is rolling out in the Gemini app for those with the AI Pro or Ultra plans. NotebookLM users subscribed to one of those plans will also be able to take advantage of the new model.
Both developers and enterprises can also access the new model via the Gemini API through a range of products, including AI Studio, Gemini Enterprise, Antigravity and Android Studio.
