Google releases VaultGemma, its first privacy-preserving LLM

The companies seeking to build larger AI models have been increasingly stymied by a lack of high-quality training data. As tech firms scour the web for more data to feed their models, they could increasingly rely on potentially sensitive user data. A team at Google Research is exploring new techniques to make the resulting large language models (LLMs) less likely to "memorize" any of that content. LLMs have non-deterministic outputs, meaning you can't exactly predict what they'll say. While the
