# Gemma Model Card

**Model Page**: [Gemma](https://ai.google.dev/gemma/docs)

This model card corresponds to the 2b pretrained version of the Gemma 2 model in GGUF Format. The weights here are **float32**.

> [!IMPORTANT]
>
> In llama.cpp, and other related tools such as Ollama and LM Studio, please make sure that you have these flags set correctly, especially **`repeat-penalty`**. Georgi Gerganov (llama.cpp's author) shared his experience in https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-7b-it/discussions/38#65d7b14adb51f7c160769fa1.

## 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, 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.
