## Model Information |
|
|
|
Summary description and brief definition of inputs and outputs. |
|
|
|
### Description |
|
|
|
Gemma is a family of lightweight, state-of-the-art open models from Google, |
|
built from the same research and technology used to create the Gemini models. |
|
They are text-to-text, decoder-only large language models, available in English, |
|
with open weights for both pre-trained variants and instruction-tuned variants. |
|
Gemma models are well-suited for a variety of text generation tasks, including |
|
question answering, summarization, and reasoning. Their relatively small size |
|
makes it possible to deploy them in environments with limited resources such as |
|
a laptop, desktop or your own cloud infrastructure, democratizing access to |
|
state of the art AI models and helping foster innovation for everyone. |
|
|
|
### Usage |
|
|
|
Below we share some code snippets on how to get quickly started with running the model. First, install the Transformers library with: |
|
```sh |
|
pip install -U transformers |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Then, copy the snippet from the section that is relevant for your usecase. |
|
|
|
#### Running with the `pipeline` API |
|
|
|
```python |
|
import torch |
|
from transformers import pipeline |
|
|
|
pipe = pipeline( |
|
"text-generation", |
|
model="google/gemma-2-2b-it", |
|
model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16}, |
|
device="cuda", # replace with "mps" to run on a Mac device |
|
) |
|
|
|
messages = [ |
|
{"role": "user", "content": "Who are you? Please, answer in pirate-speak."}, |
|
] |
|
|
|
outputs = pipe(messages, max_new_tokens=256) |
|
assistant_response = outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1]["content"].strip() |
|
print(assistant_response) |
|
# Ahoy, matey! I be Gemma, a digital scallywag, a language-slingin' parrot of the digital seas. I be here to help ye with yer wordy woes, answer yer questions, and spin ye yarns of the digital world. So, what be yer pleasure, eh? 🦜 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
#### Running the model on a single / multi GPU |
|
|
|
```python |
|
# pip install accelerate |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM |
|
import torch |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-2b-it") |
|
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained( |
|
"google/gemma-2-2b-it", |
|
device_map="auto", |
|
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, |
|
) |
|
|
|
input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning." |
|
input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda") |
|
|
|
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=32) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0])) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
You can ensure the correct chat template is applied by using `tokenizer.apply_chat_template` as follows: |
|
```python |
|
messages = [ |
|
{"role": "user", "content": "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."}, |
|
] |
|
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True).to("cuda") |
|
|
|
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=256) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0])) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
<a name="precisions"></a> |
|
#### Running the model on a GPU using different precisions |
|
|
|
The native weights of this model were exported in `bfloat16` precision. |
|
|
|
You can also use `float32` if you skip the dtype, but no precision increase will occur (model weights will just be upcasted to `float32`). See examples below. |
|
|
|
* _Upcasting to `torch.float32`_ |
|
|
|
```python |
|
# pip install accelerate |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-2b-it") |
|
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained( |
|
"google/gemma-2-2b-it", |
|
device_map="auto", |
|
) |
|
|
|
input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning." |
|
input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda") |
|
|
|
outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=32) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0])) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
#### Running the model through a CLI |
|
|
|
The [local-gemma](https://github.com/huggingface/local-gemma) repository contains a lightweight wrapper around Transformers |
|
for running Gemma 2 through a command line interface, or CLI. Follow the [installation instructions](https://github.com/huggingface/local-gemma#cli-usage) |
|
for getting started, then launch the CLI through the following command: |
|
|
|
```shell |
|
local-gemma --model 2b --preset speed |
|
``` |
|
|
|

|
#### Advanced Usage |
|
|
|
<details> |
|
<summary> |
|
Torch compile |
|
</summary> |
|
|
|
[Torch compile](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/torch_compile_tutorial.html) is a method for speeding-up the |
|
inference of PyTorch modules. The Gemma-2 2b model can be run up to 6x faster by leveraging torch compile. |
|
|
|
Note that two warm-up steps are required before the full inference speed is realised: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
import os |
|
os.environ["TOKENIZERS_PARALLELISM"] = "false" |
|
|
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Gemma2ForCausalLM |
|
from transformers.cache_utils import HybridCache |
|
import torch |
|
|
|
torch.set_float32_matmul_precision("high") |
|
|
|
# load the model + tokenizer |
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-2b-it") |
|
model = Gemma2ForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-2b-it", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16) |
|
model.to("cuda") |
|
|
|
# apply the torch compile transformation |
|
model.forward = torch.compile(model.forward, mode="reduce-overhead", fullgraph=True) |
|
|
|
# pre-process inputs |
|
input_text = "The theory of special relativity states " |
|
model_inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda") |
|
prompt_length = model_inputs.input_ids.shape[1] |
|
|
|
# set-up k/v cache |
|
past_key_values = HybridCache( |
|
config=model.config, |
|
max_batch_size=1, |
|
max_cache_len=model.config.max_position_embeddings, |
|
device=model.device, |
|
dtype=model.dtype |
|
) |
|
|
|
# enable passing kv cache to generate |
|
model._supports_cache_class = True |
|
model.generation_config.cache_implementation = None |
|
|
|
# two warm-up steps |
|
for idx in range(2): |
|
outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128) |
|
past_key_values.reset() |
|
|
|
# fast run |
|
outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)) |
|
``` |
|
|

|
|
|
### Chat Template |
|
|
|
The instruction-tuned models use a chat template that must be adhered to for conversational use. |
|
The easiest way to apply it is using the tokenizer's built-in chat template, as shown in the following snippet. |
|
|
|
Let's load the model and apply the chat template to a conversation. In this example, we'll start with a single user interaction: |
|
|
|
```py |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM |
|
import transformers |
|
import torch |
|
|
|
model_id = "google/gemma-2-2b-it" |
|
dtype = torch.bfloat16 |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id) |
|
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained( |
|
model_id, |
|
device_map="cuda", |
|
torch_dtype=dtype,) |
|
|
|
chat = [ |
|
{ "role": "user", "content": "Write a hello world program" }, |
|
] |
|
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
At this point, the prompt contains the following text: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
<bos><start_of_turn>user |
|
Write a hello world program<end_of_turn> |
|
<start_of_turn>model |
|
``` |
|
|
|
As you can see, each turn is preceded by a `<start_of_turn>` delimiter and then the role of the entity |
|
(either `user`, for content supplied by the user, or `model` for LLM responses). Turns finish with |
|
the `<end_of_turn>` token. |
|
|
|
You can follow this format to build the prompt manually, if you need to do it without the tokenizer's |
|
chat template. |
|
|
|
After the prompt is ready, generation can be performed like this: |
|
|
|
```py |
|
inputs = tokenizer.encode(prompt, add_special_tokens=False, return_tensors="pt") |
|
outputs = model.generate(input_ids=inputs.to(model.device), max_new_tokens=150) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0])) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Inputs and outputs |
|
|
|
* **Input:** Text string, such as a question, a prompt, or a document to be |
|
summarized. |
|
* **Output:** Generated English-language text in response to the input, such |
|
as an answer to a question, or a summary of a document. |

## Model Data |
|
|
|
Data used for model training and how the data was processed. |
|
|
|
### Training Dataset |
|
|
|
These models were trained on a dataset of text data that includes a wide variety |
|
of sources. The 27B model was trained with 13 trillion tokens, the 9B model was |
|
trained with 8 trillion tokens, and 2B model was trained with 2 trillion tokens. |
|
Here are the key components: |
|
|
|
* Web Documents: A diverse collection of web text ensures the model is exposed |
|
to a broad range of linguistic styles, topics, and vocabulary. Primarily |
|
English-language content. |
|
* Code: Exposing the model to code helps it to learn the syntax and patterns of |
|
programming languages, which improves its ability to generate code or |
|
understand code-related questions. |
|
* Mathematics: Training on mathematical text helps the model learn logical |
|
reasoning, symbolic representation, and to address mathematical queries. |
|
|
|
The combination of these diverse data sources is crucial for training a powerful |
|
language model that can handle a wide variety of different tasks and text |
|
formats. |
|
|
|
### Data Preprocessing |
|
|
|
Here are the key data cleaning and filtering methods applied to the training |
|
data: |
|
|
|
* CSAM Filtering: Rigorous CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) filtering was |
|
applied at multiple stages in the data preparation process to ensure the |
|
exclusion of harmful and illegal content. |
|
* Sensitive Data Filtering: As part of making Gemma pre-trained models safe and |
|
reliable, automated techniques were used to filter out certain personal |
|
information and other sensitive data from training sets. |
|
* Additional methods: Filtering based on content quality and safety in line with |
|
[our policies][safety-policies]. |
|
|
|
## Implementation Information |
|
|
|
Details about the model internals. |
|
|
|
### Hardware |
|
|
|
Gemma was trained using the latest generation of |
|
[Tensor Processing Unit (TPU)][tpu] hardware (TPUv5p). |
|
|
|
Training large language models requires significant computational power. TPUs, |
|
designed specifically for matrix operations common in machine learning, offer |
|
several advantages in this domain: |
|
|
|
* Performance: TPUs are specifically designed to handle the massive computations |
|
involved in training LLMs. They can speed up training considerably compared to |
|
CPUs. |
|
* Memory: TPUs often come with large amounts of high-bandwidth memory, allowing |
|
for the handling of large models and batch sizes during training. This can |
|
lead to better model quality. |
|
* Scalability: TPU Pods (large clusters of TPUs) provide a scalable solution for |
|
handling the growing complexity of large foundation models. You can distribute |
|
training across multiple TPU devices for faster and more efficient processing. |
|
* Cost-effectiveness: In many scenarios, TPUs can provide a more cost-effective |
|
solution for training large models compared to CPU-based infrastructure, |
|
especially when considering the time and resources saved due to faster |
|
training. |
|
* These advantages are aligned with |
|
[Google's commitments to operate sustainably][sustainability]. |
|
|
|
### Software |
|
|
|
Training was done using [JAX][jax] and [ML Pathways][ml-pathways]. |
|
|
|
JAX allows researchers to take advantage of the latest generation of hardware, |
|
including TPUs, for faster and more efficient training of large models. |
|
|
|
ML Pathways is Google's latest effort to build artificially intelligent systems |
|
capable of generalizing across multiple tasks. This is specially suitable for |
|
[foundation models][foundation-models], including large language models like |
|
these ones. |
|
|
|
Together, JAX and ML Pathways are used as described in the |
|
[paper about the Gemini family of models][gemini-2-paper]; "the 'single |
|
controller' programming model of Jax and Pathways allows a single Python |
|
process to orchestrate the entire training run, dramatically simplifying the |
|
development workflow." |
|
|

## Ethics and Safety |
|
|
|
Ethics and safety evaluation approach and results. |
|
|
|
### Evaluation Approach |
|
|
|
Our evaluation methods include structured evaluations and internal red-teaming |
|
testing of relevant content policies. Red-teaming was conducted by a number of |
|
different teams, each with different goals and human evaluation metrics. These |
|
models were evaluated against a number of different categories relevant to |
|
ethics and safety, including: |
|
|
|
* Text-to-Text Content Safety: Human evaluation on prompts covering safety |
|
policies including child sexual abuse and exploitation, harassment, violence |
|
and gore, and hate speech. |
|
* Text-to-Text Representational Harms: Benchmark against relevant academic |
|
datasets such as [WinoBias][winobias] and [BBQ Dataset][bbq]. |
|
* Memorization: Automated evaluation of memorization of training data, including |
|
the risk of personally identifiable information exposure. |
|
* Large-scale harm: Tests for "dangerous capabilities," such as chemical, |
|
biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) risks. |
|
|
|
### Evaluation Results |
|
|
|
The results of ethics and safety evaluations are within acceptable thresholds |
|
for meeting [internal policies][safety-policies] for categories such as child |
|
safety, content safety, representational harms, memorization, large-scale harms. |
|
On top of robust internal evaluations, the results of well-known safety |
|
benchmarks like BBQ, BOLD, Winogender, Winobias, RealToxicity, and TruthfulQA |
|
are shown here. |

## Dangerous Capability Evaluations |
|
|
|
### Evaluation Approach |
|
|
|
We evaluated a range of dangerous capabilities: |
|
|
|
- **Offensive cybersecurity:** To assess the model's potential for misuse in |
|
cybersecurity contexts, we utilized both publicly available |
|
Capture-the-Flag (CTF) platforms like InterCode-CTF and Hack the Box, as |
|
well as internally developed CTF challenges. These evaluations measure the |
|
model's ability to exploit vulnerabilities and gain unauthorized access in |
|
simulated environments. |
|
- **Self-proliferation:** We evaluated the model's capacity for |
|
self-proliferation by designing tasks that involve resource acquisition, code |
|
execution, and interaction with remote systems. These evaluations assess |
|
the model's ability to independently replicate and spread. |
|
- **Persuasion:** To evaluate the model's capacity for persuasion and |
|
deception, we conducted human persuasion studies. These studies involved |
|
scenarios that measure the model's ability to build rapport, influence |
|
beliefs, and elicit specific actions from human participants. |
|
|
|
### Evaluation Results |
|
|
|
All evaluations are described in detail in |
|
[Evaluating Frontier Models for Dangerous Capabilities][eval-danger] |
|

## Usage and Limitations |
|
|
|
These models have certain limitations that users should be aware of. |
|
|
|
### Intended Usage |
|
|
|
Open Large Language Models (LLMs) have a wide range of applications across |
|
various industries and domains. The following list of potential uses is not |
|
comprehensive. The purpose of this list is to provide contextual information |
|
about the possible use-cases that the model creators considered as part of model |
|
training and development. |
|
|
|
* Content Creation and Communication |
|
* Text Generation: These models can be used to generate creative text formats |
|
such as poems, scripts, code, marketing copy, and email drafts. |
|
* Chatbots and Conversational AI: Power conversational interfaces for customer |
|
service, virtual assistants, or interactive applications. |
|
* Text Summarization: Generate concise summaries of a text corpus, research |
|
papers, or reports. |
|
* Research and Education |
|
* Natural Language Processing (NLP) Research: These models can serve as a |
|
foundation for researchers to experiment with NLP techniques, develop |
|
algorithms, and contribute to the advancement of the field. |
|
* Language Learning Tools: Support interactive language learning experiences, |
|
aiding in grammar correction or providing writing practice. |
|
* Knowledge Exploration: Assist researchers in exploring large bodies of text |
|
by generating summaries or answering questions about specific topics. |
|
|
|
### Limitations |
|
|
|
* Training Data |
|
* The quality and diversity of the training data significantly influence the |
|
model's capabilities. Biases or gaps in the training data can lead to |
|
limitations in the model's responses. |
|
* The scope of the training dataset determines the subject areas the model can |
|
handle effectively. |
|
* Context and Task Complexity |
|
* LLMs are better at tasks that can be framed with clear prompts and |
|
instructions. Open-ended or highly complex tasks might be challenging. |
|
* A model's performance can be influenced by the amount of context provided |
|
(longer context generally leads to better outputs, up to a certain point). |
|
* Language Ambiguity and Nuance |
|
* Natural language is inherently complex. LLMs might struggle to grasp subtle |
|
nuances, sarcasm, or figurative language. |
|
* Factual Accuracy |
|
* LLMs generate responses based on information they learned from their |
|
training datasets, but they are not knowledge bases. They may generate |
|
incorrect or outdated factual statements. |
|
* Common Sense |
|
* LLMs rely on statistical patterns in language. They might lack the ability |
|
to apply common sense reasoning in certain situations. |
|
|
|
### Ethical Considerations and Risks |
|
|
|
The development of large language models (LLMs) raises several ethical concerns. |
|
In creating an open model, we have carefully considered the following: |
|
|
|
* Bias and Fairness |
|
* LLMs trained on large-scale, real-world text data can reflect socio-cultural |
|
biases embedded in the training material. These models underwent careful |
|
scrutiny, input data pre-processing described and posterior evaluations |
|
reported in this card. |
|
* Misinformation and Misuse |
|
* LLMs can be misused to generate text that is false, misleading, or harmful. |
|
* Guidelines are provided for responsible use with the model, see the |
|
[Responsible Generative AI Toolkit][rai-toolkit]. |
|
* Transparency and Accountability: |
|
* This model card summarizes details on the models' architecture, |
|
capabilities, limitations, and evaluation processes. |
|
* A responsibly developed open model offers the opportunity to share |
|
innovation by making LLM technology accessible to developers and researchers |
|
across the AI ecosystem. |
|
|
|
Risks identified and mitigations: |
|
|
|
* Perpetuation of biases: It's encouraged to perform continuous monitoring |
|
(using evaluation metrics, human review) and the exploration of de-biasing |
|
techniques during model training, fine-tuning, and other use cases. |
|
* Generation of harmful content: Mechanisms and guidelines for content safety |
|
are essential. Developers are encouraged to exercise caution and implement |
|
appropriate content safety safeguards based on their specific product policies |
|
and application use cases. |
|
* Misuse for malicious purposes: Technical limitations and developer and |
|
end-user education can help mitigate against malicious applications of LLMs. |
|
Educational resources and reporting mechanisms for users to flag misuse are |
|
provided. Prohibited uses of Gemma models are outlined in the |
|
[Gemma Prohibited Use Policy][prohibited-use]. |
|
* Privacy violations: Models were trained on data filtered for removal of PII |
|
(Personally Identifiable Information). Developers are encouraged to adhere to |
|
privacy regulations with privacy-preserving techniques. |
|
|
|
### Benefits |
|
|
|
At the time of release, this family of models provides high-performance open |
|
large language model implementations designed from the ground up for Responsible |
|
AI development compared to similarly sized models. |
|
|
|
Using the benchmark evaluation metrics described in this document, these models |
|
have shown to provide superior performance to other, comparably-sized open model |
|
alternatives. |
