Gemma 4: SF Edition

Google DeepMind’s Gemma team is hosting a demo night in San Francisco to celebrate the launch of Gemma 4 and other models!

This is a night for the builders. We’re bringing together ~100 founders, ML engineers, and open-source contributors to go under the hood. 

Join us to network with people from the open models ecosystem, hear from the engineers behind the weights, and see how the community is building with open models. We’ll have exclusive talks from the Gemma Team, Awni (MLX creator), Daniel Han (Unsloth Co-Founder), Henry (Cactus Compute), Nous Research, and more!
