Google claims that PaLM 2 is “highly trained on multilingual text,” and can work in over 100 languages, and this capability empowers the ability to understand, generate, and translate fine-grained text.

PaLM 2 also has robust reasoning capabilities with detailed datasets. Additionally, PaLM 2 was pre-trained on publicly available source code datasets, making it efficient in popular programming languages ​​such as Python and JavaScript, and others such as Prolog, Fortran, and Verilog.

“We will make the PaLM 2 available in four sizes from smallest to largest: Gecko, Otter, Bison and Unicorn. Gecko is lightweight enough to work on mobile devices and fast enough for great interactive applications on the device, even when offline.”

The company aims to harness the versatility of the PaLM 2 model and help integrate it across a plethora of product lines, making it more useful to people.

Google has successfully integrated the advanced PaLM 2 LLM into 25 of its core products, including the Google Bard and Google Workspace apps. In addition, Google’s health research teams developed Med-PaLM 2, which is trained to provide insightful summaries and answers to complex medical questions based on a series of in-depth medical lessons with medical knowledge.

Recognizing the impact of AI models, Google said, “Versatile AI models yield real benefits for everyone. Yet just as we remain committed to releasing the most useful and responsible AI tools today, we at Google We are also working to create the best foundation model ever for

Google is currently developing Gemini, a next-generation AI model, which they plan to eventually replace PaLM 2 with some products like the Google Bard, when it is deemed ready for widespread use.
