Developers to Google: Give Us a 1T+ Parameter Base Model for Next Gemma
_xjdr · x · 2026-07-27
In response to a Google HF team member asking for feedback on the next generation of Gemma models, prominent AI researcher @xdr explicitly requested: "1T+ params and a base model please!"
This feedback highlights a strong demand within the open-source community for ultra-large, raw base models, proving that developers still crave massive scaling despite the recent focus on lightweight and edge models.
