Just one month after the release of Gemma 2, Google has expanded its model lineup with the new releases of Gemma 2 2B, ShieldGemma, and Gemma Scope.

Key updates:

  • Gemma 2 2B: A 2.6B parameter model optimized for on-device environments. It shares the same architecture as the existing 9B and 27B models, and incorporates sliding attention and logit soft-capping techniques.
  • ShieldGemma: A series of safety classifiers trained based on Gemma 2. It helps developers filter application inputs and outputs to ensure safety.
  • Gemma Scope: A family of sparse autoencoders for the Gemma 2 2B and 9B models, providing interpretability tools to understand the model's internal workings.

Gemma 2 2B can be easily used via Hugging Face's transformers library and llama.cpp, and weights are also provided in GGUF format.
