Gemma 2, the next-generation open-source AI model from Google DeepMind, offers 9 billion and 27 billion parameter versions with outstanding performance and inference efficiency. It supports full-precision, efficient operation on diverse hardware, significantly reducing deployment costs. Notably, the 27 billion parameter version of Gemma 2 delivers the performance of a model twice its size and can be run on a single NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU or TPU host, significantly lowering deployment costs.
