# Google DeepMind launches Gemini 3.6 Flash and two other models

*2026-07-21 · Source: [Google DeepMind](https://deepmind.google/blog/introducing-gemini-3-6-flash-3-5-flash-lite-and-3-5-flash-cyber/)*

Google DeepMind introduced three new models: Gemini 3.6 Flash, Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite, and Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber. Flash-Lite targets lower-cost, lower-latency use cases, while Flash Cyber is aimed at security-related tasks.

**Why it matters:** This continues Google's strategy of shipping several tuned model sizes rather than one flagship release, echoing other labs' recent moves toward purpose-built models - such as Sakana's security-tuned Fugu-Cyber - for cost, latency, and security niches instead of a single general-purpose model.
