Google Employees Internally Testing Gemini 3.8 Flash AI Model

Google employees are reportedly testing an internal preview of an AI model referred to as 'Gemini 3.8 Flash Preview' on the company's internal coding platform, Jetski. This development comes just 14 days after Gemini 3.7 Flash reached general availability. If this rapid release cadence continues, it would signify one of Google's fastest turnarounds for its Flash models, intensifying competition in the market for fast, high-volume AI model tiers where rivals like OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI are also vying for price leadership.
