android couldn't find taskid=3,Gradle couldn't find com.android.databinding:dataBinder:1.0-rc0

This is an old question which is irrelevant today. See Android developer's instruction. Applying Databinding to your projects is a lot easier now than four years ago.

As I am going over Android Data binding Guide from https://developer.android.com/tools/data-binding/guide.html. I have made sure I am running Android Studio 1.3 (canary version).

Following the guidelines, I get this error:

Gradle sync failed: could not find com.android.databinding:library:1.0-rc0

Has anyone else have the same problem? Thanks for your help.
