Google released Gemini 3.8 Flash, a new AI model that performs more reasoning steps and iteratively calls tools compared to its predecessor Gemini 3.7 Flash. The model carries the same introductory pricing of $0.75 per million input tokens and $3.75 per million output tokens, but Google cautions that it may consume more tokens to maximize performance, particularly at higher effort levels. Developers can continue using Gemini 3.7 Flash if they prefer to control token consumption.
Why it matters
The model's enhanced reasoning capabilities may improve AI performance on complex tasks, but the potential for higher token consumption could increase costs for users despite identical per-token pricing.
