Google DeepMind Unveils Gemini 1.5 Pro with 2 Million Token Context Window (April 6, 2026)**\n- Google DeepMind officially released Gemini 1.5 Pro, a major upgrade to its flagship large language model, featuring a context window expanded to 2 million tokens—quadrupling the previous 512,000-token limit. The model demonstrated near-perfect retrieval accuracy across hour-long video inputs and multi-document legal or scientific analyses. It is now available via API with select enterprise partners, including Deloitte and Nature Publishing Group. Google emphasized improved reasoning efficiency, with a 40% reduction in inference latency compared to Gemini 1.0.\n- Source: [https://deepmind.google/news/gemini-1-5-pro-releases](https://deepmind.google/news/gemini-1-5-pro-releases)*\n- 2. Meta Releases Llama 4 with Mixture-of-Experts Architecture (April 8, 2026)**\n\n## Analysis\nMeta launched Llama 4, a next-generation open-weight model built on a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 16 experts and 400 billion total parameters (85 billion active per token). Trained on 30 trillion tokens, Llama 4 achieves GPT-5-level performance on MMLU (+92.1) and HumanEval (+89.7), while maintaining efficiency via dynamic routing. The model is available under a permissive license, with variants including Llama 4 Vision and Llama 4 Turbo for low-latency applications. Initial benchmarks show 3x faster inference than Llama 3 on comparable hardware.\n\n*Source: [https://ai.meta.com/blog/llama-4-release](https://ai.meta.com/blog/llama-4-release)*\n\n**3.
