At Google, we believe in making AI helpful for everyone. We have a long history of contributing innovations to the open community, such as with Transformers, TensorFlow, BERT, T5, JAX, AlphaFold, and AlphaCode. Today, we’re excited to introduce a new generation of open models from Google to assist developers and researchers in building AI responsibly.

Gemma is a family of lightweight, state-of-the-art open models built from the same research and technology used to create the Gemini models. Developed by Google DeepMind and other teams across Google, Gemma is inspired by Gemini, and the name reflects the Latin gemma, meaning “precious stone.” Accompanying our model weights, we’re also releasing tools to support developer innovation, foster collaboration, and guide responsible use of Gemma models. — Read More
