AI brief
Google released EmbeddingGemma 2, an open multimodal embedding model small enough to run on a smartphone. It adds image, audio and video support to the EmbeddingGemma line, which previously handled text only.
Why it matters: It brings multimodal embedding on-device, since the model is small enough to run on a phone.
