Google Research has released TimesFM-3, a 330 million parameter time series foundation model that forecasts multiple related series in a single forward pass. Unlike every TimesFM checkpoint through 2.5, it is pretrained natively for multivariate forecasting, accepting multiple targets, past covariates, and past-future covariates with no task-specific fine-tuning. It takes the top average rank among pretrained foundation models on GIFT-Eval, fev-bench, and the TIME leaderboard. The weights, however, ship under a non-commercial, non-production license.

Dive into the advanced visualization capabilities of the Reflex XY Python library. This tutorial guides you through building high-performance, interactive charts—from handling million-point datasets and real-time streaming to creating custom mark plugins and exporting publication-ready visuals.

We look at Gemini-SQL2, the text-to-SQL capability Google Research announced on June 12, 2026. Powered by Gemini 3.1 Pro, it posted 80.04% execution accuracy on the BIRD single-model leaderboard. We explain what the score measures, how the leaderboard stacks up, and what Google has not yet disclosed. We also cover use cases and a schema-grounded implementation pattern.
