Google is gearing up to unveil its latest AI language model, Gemini 2.0, in December, according to insider sources from The Verge.

Another indication of the plateau thesis: OpenAI has just confirmed that a new model, internally considered as a potential successor to GPT-4, will not be released this year, despite looming competition from Google Gemini 2.0.

Similarly, Anthropic is rumored to have put a previously announced version 3.5 of its flagship Opus model on hold due to a lack of significant progress, instead focusing on an improved version of Sonnet 3.5 that emphasizes agent-based AI.
