gemma

Definition

Google's family of lightweight open-weight language models, described by Google as built from the same research and technology behind Gemini. Because the weights are published, Gemma can be fine-tuned and run on your own hardware — the practical difference from Gemini, which is offered as a hosted service. It ships in several sizes, so the same recipe spans laptop-class to server-class deployments.
