Groq adds Gemma to its lightning fast chatbot — now you can talk to Google’s open-source alternative to Gemini

Google Gemma.

Google’s open source AI model Gemma is now available through the Groq chatbot. It joins Mixtral from the French AI lab Mistral and Meta’s Llama 2.

Gemma is a much smaller language model than the likes of Gemini or OpenAI’s ChatGPT but is available to install anywhere, including on your laptop — but nothing runs it as fast as the Language Processing Unit (LPU) chips that power the Groq interface.
