以小小小小胜大,Google 最强小模型刚刚发布,手机也能跑

「开放」和「开源」,并非一字之差。 Google 的 Gemma 系列发布已有两年,但开发者能下载、能本地运行,但用途受限,再分发受限,改了也不能随便传播。充其量说,这只能算「开放」,还达不到 AI 圈「开源」的标准。 Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis 就在刚刚,Google 发布四款 Gemma 4 系列模型,支持 Apache 2.0 全面开源,其中最小的版本可以在树莓派上完全离线运行。Gemma 小模型,第一次真正意义上地落到了每个人手里。 以小小小小胜大 Gemma 4 共发布四个尺寸,底层技术与 Gemini 3 同源,覆盖从边缘设备到高性能工作站的硬件: E2B / E4B: 专为手机和 IoT 设备设计,与 Google Pixel 团队及高通、联发科深度合作优化。推理时分别仅激活 2B 和 4B 参数,以尽量节省内存和电量。 支持 128K 上下文窗口,具备图片、视频和原生音频输入能力,可在 Pixel 手机、树莓派、Jetson Orin Nano 上完全离线运行,延迟接近于零。Android 开发者现在可通过 AICore 开发者预览版提前体验 Agent Mode。 26B MoE: 混合专家架构,推理时仅激活全部参数中的 3.8B,在保证极快推理速度的同时维持较高质量,Arena AI 文本评分达到 1441,位列开源模型

Gill Pratt Says Humanoid Robots’ Moment Is Finally Here

In 2012, the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency announced the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC). The multi-year, multi-million-dollar competition for disaster robotics resulted in Boston Dynamics’ Atlas , some absolutely incredible moments from one of the very first generations of useful humanoid robots, and a blooper video that will live on forever. Gill Pratt , the architect of the competition, had a very clear understanding of what the DRC was going to do for robotics. “The reason [for the DARPA Robotics Challenge] is actually to push the field forward and make this capability a re
