December
The year is winding down, but we still have lots to say. Early returns show that you were interested in how to mitigate the React2Shell vulnerability, support for MCP across Google services, and the early access launch of AlphaEvolve. And let’s not forget Gemini 3 Flash, which is turning heads with its high-level reasoning, plus amazing speed and a flexible cost profile.
What does this all mean for you and your future? It’s important to contextualize these technology developments, especially AI. For example, the DORA team put together a guide on how high-performing platform teams can integrate AI capabilities into their workflows, we discussed what it looks like to have an AI-ready workforce, and our Office of the CISO colleagues put out their 2026 cybersecurity predictions. More to the point (guard), you could do like Golden State Warrior Stephen Curry and turn to Gemini to analyze your game, to prepare for the year ahead. We’ll be watching on Christmas Day to see how Steph is faring with Gemini’s advice.
