Google announced the launch of Gemini 3.1 Pro, its latest artificial intelligence model aimed at tackling complex problem-solving tasks while improving thinking capabilities.
The update comes exactly three months after the company released the Gemini 3 Pro on November 19.
With Gemini 3.1 Pro, Google says it’s taking “a step forward in fundamental thinking,” positioning the model as a more intelligent baseline capable of handling complex challenges, according to GSM Arena.
According to Google, the Gemini 3.1 Pro shows stronger performance across multiple AI benchmarks than the Gemini 3 Pro and competing flagship models from other companies.
The company particularly highlighted the results of ARC-AGI-2, a benchmark designed to evaluate a model’s ability to solve completely new logic patterns. In this test, the Gemini 3.1 Pro outperformed competing models, underscoring its advances in thoughtfulness and adaptability.
Google describes the new model as designed for scenarios “where a simple answer is not enough,” according to GSM Arena.
It uses advanced reasoning techniques to address the most demanding queries and multi-layered tasks.
According to GSM Arena, the company said this augmented intelligence is suitable for practical applications such as creating clear, visual explanations of complex topics, aggregating large amounts of data into a unified view, and supporting creative workflows.
Gemini 3.1 Pro is being rolled out to all users through the Gemini app. However, subscribers to Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra plans will get higher usage limits. The model is also available within NotebookLM, but access is limited to Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.
The launch underscores Google’s continued focus on enhancing the reasoning capabilities of its AI systems, an area that has become central to the competition in generative AI.
