> Although this is from Google, we're a very small team that wanted such a codebase to exist. We have lots of plans to use it ourselves and we hope other people like it and find it useful.
Everyone working on this self-selected into contributing, so I think of it less as my team than ... a team?
Specifically want to call out: Jan Wassenberg (author of https://github.com/google/highway) and I started gemma.cpp as a small project just a few months ago + Phil Culliton, Dan Zheng, and Paul Chang + of course the GDM Gemma team.
Huge +1, this has definitely been a self-forming collective of people who love great AI, great research, and the open community.
Austin and Jan are truly amazing. The optimization work is genuinely outstanding; I get incredible CPU performance on Gemma.cpp for inference. Thanks for all of the awesomeness, Austin =)
This is really cool, Austin. Kudos to your team!
