导读
从 2026 年 10 月开始，Google 将削减 Gemini 的免费访问，未订阅用户只能使用最小的 Flash-Lite 模型，Flash 与 Pro 保留给付费用户，5 美元每月的订阅档也无法使用 Pro。报道提到这一调整可能为资源消耗更高的 Gemini 4 Argon 做准备。
推荐理由
免费用户与低价订阅者的模型权限被下调，读者可据此判断 Gemini 分层策略对使用成本的影响。

Starting in October 2026, Google will restrict access to its Gemini models for personal account users. Without a subscription, users will only get the smallest model, "Flash-Lite." The more powerful "Flash" and "Pro" won't be included. That's a cut from the current free tier, which offers access to 3.6 Flash and varying access to 3.1 Pro. AI Plus subscribers ($4.99/month) lose access to Pro and can only use Flash-Lite and Flash. All three models require AI Pro ($19.99/month) or AI Ultra ($99.99 or $199.99/month). The setup mirrors OpenAI's freemium model with ChatGPT. Details on the subscription tiers are on Google's support page .

The real-world impact is likely small. Most casual Google AI users have no idea which model they're running. Power users, just a few percent of the total base, are likely already paying for subscriptions. Google may also be setting the stage for the larger Gemini 4 Argon , which could be pricier to run.
