+## 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 for both 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.
+
+### Usage
+
+Below we share some code snippets on how to get quickly started with running the model. First, install the Transformers library with:
+```sh
+pip install -U transformers
+```
+
+Then, copy the snippet from the section that is relevant for your usecase.
+
+#### Running with the `pipeline` API
+
+```python
+import torch
+from transformers import pipeline
+
+pipe = pipeline(
+    "text-generation",
+    model="google/gemma-2-27b-it",
+    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
+    device="cuda",  # replace with "mps" to run on a Mac device
+)
+
+messages = [
+    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you? Please, answer in pirate-speak."},
+]
+
+outputs = pipe(messages, max_new_tokens=256)
+assistant_response = outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1]["content"].strip()
+print(assistant_response)
+# Ahoy, matey! I be Gemma, a digital scallywag, a language-slingin' parrot of the digital seas. I be here to help ye with yer wordy woes, answer yer questions, and spin ye yarns of the digital world.  So, what be yer pleasure, eh? 🦜
+```
+
+#### Running the model on a single / multi GPU
+
+```python
+# pip install accelerate
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
+import torch
+
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-27b-it")
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
+    "google/gemma-2-27b-it",
+    device_map="auto",
+    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
+)
+
+input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
+input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
+
+outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=32)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
+```
+
+You can ensure the correct chat template is applied by using `tokenizer.apply_chat_template` as follows:
+```python
+messages = [
+    {"role": "user", "content": "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."},
+]
+input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True).to("cuda")
+
+outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=256)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
+```
+
+<a name="precisions"></a>
+#### Running the model on a GPU using different precisions
+
+The native weights of this model were exported in `bfloat16` precision.
+
+You can also use `float32` if you skip the dtype, but no precision increase will occur (model weights will just be upcasted to `float32`). See examples below.
+
+* _Upcasting to `torch.float32`_
+
+```python
+# pip install accelerate
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
+
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-27b-it")
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
+    "google/gemma-2-27b-it",
+    device_map="auto",
+)
+
+input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
+input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
+
+outputs = model.generate(**input_ids, max_new_tokens=32)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
+```
+
+#### Running the model through a CLI
+
+The [local-gemma](https://github.com/huggingface/local-gemma) repository contains a lightweight wrapper around Transformers
+for running Gemma 2 through a command line interface, or CLI. Follow the [installation instructions](https://github.com/huggingface/local-gemma#cli-usage)
+for getting started, then launch the CLI through the following command:
+
+```shell
+local-gemma --model 27b --preset speed
+```
+

+
+#### Advanced Usage
+
+<details>
+  <summary>
+    Torch compile  
+  </summary>
+
+[Torch compile](https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/torch_compile_tutorial.html) is a method for speeding-up the 
+inference of PyTorch modules. The Gemma-2 model can be run up to 6x faster by leveraging torch compile.
+
+Note that two warm-up steps are required before the full inference speed is realised:
+
+```python
+import os
+os.environ["TOKENIZERS_PARALLELISM"] = "false"
+
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Gemma2ForCausalLM
+from transformers.cache_utils import HybridCache
+import torch
+
+torch.set_float32_matmul_precision("high")
+
+# load the model + tokenizer
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-27b-it")
+model = Gemma2ForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2-27b-it", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)
+model.to("cuda")
+
+# apply the torch compile transformation
+model.forward = torch.compile(model.forward, mode="reduce-overhead", fullgraph=True)
+
+# pre-process inputs
+input_text = "The theory of special relativity states "
+model_inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
+prompt_length = model_inputs.input_ids.shape[1]
+
+# set-up k/v cache
+past_key_values = HybridCache(
+    config=model.config,
+    max_batch_size=1,
+    max_cache_len=model.config.max_position_embeddings,
+    device=model.device,
+    dtype=model.dtype
+)
+
+# enable passing kv cache to generate
+model._supports_cache_class = True
+model.generation_config.cache_implementation = None
+
+# two warm-up steps
+for idx in range(2):
+    outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128)
+    past_key_values.reset()
+
+# fast run
+outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
+```

+
+### Chat Template
+
+The instruction-tuned models use a chat template that must be adhered to for conversational use.
+The easiest way to apply it is using the tokenizer's built-in chat template, as shown in the following snippet.
+
+Let's load the model and apply the chat template to a conversation. In this example, we'll start with a single user interaction:
+
+```py
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
+import transformers
+import torch
+
+model_id = "google/gemma-2-27b-it"
+dtype = torch.bfloat16
+
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
+    model_id,
+    device_map="cuda",
+    torch_dtype=dtype,
+)
+
+chat = [
+    { "role": "user", "content": "Write a hello world program" },
+]
+prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
+```
+
+At this point, the prompt contains the following text:
+
+```
+<bos><start_of_turn>user
+Write a hello world program<end_of_turn>
+<start_of_turn>model
+```
+
+As you can see, each turn is preceded by a `<start_of_turn>` delimiter and then the role of the entity
+(either `user`, for content supplied by the user, or `model` for LLM responses). Turns finish with
+the `<end_of_turn>` token.
+
+You can follow this format to build the prompt manually, if you need to do it without the tokenizer's
+chat template.
+
+After the prompt is ready, generation can be performed like this:
+
+```py
+inputs = tokenizer.encode(prompt, add_special_tokens=False, return_tensors="pt")
+outputs = model.generate(input_ids=inputs.to(model.device), max_new_tokens=150)
+print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
+```
+
+### Inputs and outputs
+
+*   **Input:** Text string, such as a question, a prompt, or a document to be
+    summarized.
+*   **Output:** Generated English-language text in response to the input, such
+    as an answer to a question, or a summary of a document.

+## Model Data
+
+Data used for model training and how the data was processed.
+
+### Training Dataset
+
+These models were trained on a dataset of text data that includes a wide variety of sources. The 27B model was trained with 13 trillion tokens and the 9B model was trained with 8 trillion tokens. 
+Here are the key components:
+
+* Web Documents: A diverse collection of web text ensures the model is exposed
+  to a broad range of linguistic styles, topics, and vocabulary. Primarily
+  English-language content.
+* Code: Exposing the model to code helps it to learn the syntax and patterns of
+  programming languages, which improves its ability to generate code or
+  understand code-related questions.
+* Mathematics: Training on mathematical text helps the model learn logical
+  reasoning, symbolic representation, and to address mathematical queries.
+
+The combination of these diverse data sources is crucial for training a powerful
+language model that can handle a wide variety of different tasks and text
+formats.
+
+### Data Preprocessing
+
+Here are the key data cleaning and filtering methods applied to the training
+data:
+
+* CSAM Filtering: Rigorous CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) filtering was
+  applied at multiple stages in the data preparation process to ensure the
+  exclusion of harmful and illegal content.
+* Sensitive Data Filtering: As part of making Gemma pre-trained models safe and
+  reliable, automated techniques were used to filter out certain personal
+  information and other sensitive data from training sets.
+* Additional methods: Filtering based on content quality and safety in line with
+  [our policies][safety-policies].
+
+## Implementation Information
+
+Details about the model internals.
+
+### Hardware
+
+Gemma was trained using the latest generation of
+[Tensor Processing Unit (TPU)][tpu] hardware (TPUv5p).
+
+Training large language models requires significant computational power. TPUs,
+designed specifically for matrix operations common in machine learning, offer
+several advantages in this domain:
+
+* Performance: TPUs are specifically designed to handle the massive computations
+  involved in training LLMs. They can speed up training considerably compared to
+  CPUs.
+* Memory: TPUs often come with large amounts of high-bandwidth memory, allowing
+  for the handling of large models and batch sizes during training. This can
+  lead to better model quality.
+* Scalability: TPU Pods (large clusters of TPUs) provide a scalable solution for
+  handling the growing complexity of large foundation models. You can distribute
+  training across multiple TPU devices for faster and more efficient processing.
+* Cost-effectiveness: In many scenarios, TPUs can provide a more cost-effective
+  solution for training large models compared to CPU-based infrastructure,
+  especially when considering the time and resources saved due to faster
+  training.
+* These advantages are aligned with
+  [Google's commitments to operate sustainably][sustainability].
+
+### Software
+
+Training was done using [JAX][jax] and [ML Pathways][ml-pathways].
+
+JAX allows researchers to take advantage of the latest generation of hardware,
+including TPUs, for faster and more efficient training of large models.
+
+ML Pathways is Google's latest effort to build artificially intelligent systems
+capable of generalizing across multiple tasks. This is specially suitable for
+[foundation models][foundation-models], including large language models like
+these ones.
+
+Together, JAX and ML Pathways are used as described in the
+[paper about the Gemini family of models][gemini-2-paper]; "the 'single
+controller' programming model of Jax and Pathways allows a single Python
+process to orchestrate the entire training run, dramatically simplifying the
+development workflow."

+## Ethics and Safety
+
+Ethics and safety evaluation approach and results.
+
+### Evaluation Approach
+
+Our evaluation methods include structured evaluations and internal red-teaming
+testing of relevant content policies. Red-teaming was conducted by a number of
+different teams, each with different goals and human evaluation metrics. These
+models were evaluated against a number of different categories relevant to
+ethics and safety, including:
+
+* Text-to-Text Content Safety: Human evaluation on prompts covering safety
+  policies including child sexual abuse and exploitation, harassment, violence
+  and gore, and hate speech.
+* Text-to-Text Representational Harms: Benchmark against relevant academic
+  datasets such as [WinoBias][winobias] and [BBQ Dataset][bbq].
+* Memorization: Automated evaluation of memorization of training data, including
+  the risk of personally identifiable information exposure.
+* Large-scale harm: Tests for "dangerous capabilities," such as chemical,
+  biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) risks.
+
+### Evaluation Results
+
+The results of ethics and safety evaluations are within acceptable thresholds
+for meeting [internal policies][safety-policies] for categories such as child
+safety, content safety, representational harms, memorization, large-scale harms.
+On top of robust internal evaluations, the results of well-known safety
+benchmarks like BBQ, BOLD, Winogender, Winobias, RealToxicity, and TruthfulQA
+are shown here.

+
+## Usage and Limitations
+
+These models have certain limitations that users should be aware of.
+
+### Intended Usage
+
+Open Large Language Models (LLMs) have a wide range of applications across
+various industries and domains. The following list of potential uses is not
+comprehensive. The purpose of this list is to provide contextual information
+about the possible use-cases that the model creators considered as part of model
+training and development.
+
+* Content Creation and Communication
+  * Text Generation: These models can be used to generate creative text formats
+    such as poems, scripts, code, marketing copy, and email drafts.
+  * Chatbots and Conversational AI: Power conversational interfaces for customer
+    service, virtual assistants, or interactive applications.
+  * Text Summarization: Generate concise summaries of a text corpus, research
+    papers, or reports.
+* Research and Education
+  * Natural Language Processing (NLP) Research: These models can serve as a
+    foundation for researchers to experiment with NLP techniques, develop
+    algorithms, and contribute to the advancement of the field.
+  * Language Learning Tools: Support interactive language learning experiences,
+    aiding in grammar correction or providing writing practice.
+  * Knowledge Exploration: Assist researchers in exploring large bodies of text
+    by generating summaries or answering questions about specific topics.
+
+### Limitations
+
+* Training Data
+  * The quality and diversity of the training data significantly influence the
+    model's capabilities. Biases or gaps in the training data can lead to
+    limitations in the model's responses.
+  * The scope of the training dataset determines the subject areas the model can
+    handle effectively.
+* Context and Task Complexity
+  * LLMs are better at tasks that can be framed with clear prompts and
+    instructions. Open-ended or highly complex tasks might be challenging.
+  * A model's performance can be influenced by the amount of context provided
+    (longer context generally leads to better outputs, up to a certain point).
+* Language Ambiguity and Nuance
+  * Natural language is inherently complex. LLMs might struggle to grasp subtle
+    nuances, sarcasm, or figurative language.
+* Factual Accuracy
+  * LLMs generate responses based on information they learned from their
+    training datasets, but they are not knowledge bases. They may generate
+    incorrect or outdated factual statements.
+* Common Sense
+  * LLMs rely on statistical patterns in language. They might lack the ability
+    to apply common sense reasoning in certain situations.
+
+### Ethical Considerations and Risks
+
+The development of large language models (LLMs) raises several ethical concerns.
+In creating an open model, we have carefully considered the following:
+
+* Bias and Fairness
+  * LLMs trained on large-scale, real-world text data can reflect socio-cultural
+    biases embedded in the training material. These models underwent careful
+    scrutiny, input data pre-processing described and posterior evaluations
+    reported in this card.
+* Misinformation and Misuse
+  * LLMs can be misused to generate text that is false, misleading, or harmful.
+  * Guidelines are provided for responsible use with the model, see the
+    [Responsible Generative AI Toolkit][rai-toolkit].
+* Transparency and Accountability:
+  * This model card summarizes details on the models' architecture,
+    capabilities, limitations, and evaluation processes.
+  * A responsibly developed open model offers the opportunity to share
+    innovation by making LLM technology accessible to developers and researchers
+    across the AI ecosystem.
+
+Risks identified and mitigations:
+
+* Perpetuation of biases: It's encouraged to perform continuous monitoring
+  (using evaluation metrics, human review) and the exploration of de-biasing
+  techniques during model training, fine-tuning, and other use cases.
+* Generation of harmful content: Mechanisms and guidelines for content safety
+  are essential. Developers are encouraged to exercise caution and implement
+  appropriate content safety safeguards based on their specific product policies
+  and application use cases.
+* Misuse for malicious purposes: Technical limitations and developer and
+  end-user education can help mitigate against malicious applications of LLMs.
+  Educational resources and reporting mechanisms for users to flag misuse are
+  provided. Prohibited uses of Gemma models are outlined in the
+  [Gemma Prohibited Use Policy][prohibited-use].
+* Privacy violations: Models were trained on data filtered for removal of PII
+  (Personally Identifiable Information). Developers are encouraged to adhere to
+  privacy regulations with privacy-preserving techniques.
+
+### Benefits
+
+At the time of release, this family of models provides high-performance open
+large language model implementations designed from the ground up for Responsible
+AI development compared to similarly sized models.
+
+Using the benchmark evaluation metrics described in this document, these models
+have shown to provide superior performance to other, comparably-sized open model
+alternatives.
