Hello on behalf of the Gemma team! We are really excited to answer any questions you may have about our models. Opinions are our own and not of Google DeepMind.

Does this model also thinks german were black 200 years ago ? Or is afraid to answer basic stuff ? because if this is the case no one will care about that model.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Which remarks are you referring to?

The synde remarks at metas llama license that doesn't allow companies with 700 million monthly active users to use it, while this model also doesn't have a really 'open' license itself and also this paragraph: >As the ecosystem evolves, we urge the wider AI community to move beyond simplistic ’open vs. closed’ debates, and avoid either exaggerating or minimising potential harms, as we believe a nuanced, collaborative…

How is this a snide remark? It's factual and prevented their team from benchmarking against Llama 2.

Great! Google is now participating in the AI race to zero with Meta, as predicted that $0 free AI models would eventually catch up against cloud-based ones. You would not want to be in the middle of this as there is no moat around this at all. Not even OpenAI.

About 5 months until we see widespread local LLMs, thanks to Apple.

Apple needs to be known as an AI leader first.

Go back 5 years and ask anyone on this site what companies do you think will be the most open about AI in the future OpenAI, Meta, or Google. I bet 10/10 people would pick OpenAI. Now today Meta and Google, both trillion dollars companies, are releasing very powerful open models with the ability to be used commercially. Ironic.

This article states quite an impressive list of open source tools that Google has released for years in the past. This is no surprise coming from* them. Google has released some large pieces of source in other domains as well, Chromium comes to mind, which probably impacts most Internet users directly. The question is not about Google but about OpenAI.

Google also has released Guice/Dagger for Java dependency injection. Angular never really took off, but guice/dagger are widely used. Also I am pretty impressed with Flutter as an alternative to react native.

Absolutely this.
