DataRater test model (1B)

Closed weights Google DeepMind 1B parameters May 2025

No estimate

No hardware requirements for this model

The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.

On record

Full specification

Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What it does

The problem areas the model was built for. A model can carry several of each.

Domain
Language
Task
Language modeling

Size

How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.

Parameters
1B

"A baseline 1B model is trained on the unfiltered dataset, while a second 1B model is trained analogously on the same dataset, but filtered by a DataRater."

Training data

Training compute

The arithmetic performed to train the model, measured in floating-point operations. It is a measure of what the training run cost, not of how fast the finished model answers you.

Training compute
1.2 × 10²⁰ FLOP

c = 6nd where n = 1B, d = 20B c = 6 * 1B * 20B = 1.2e20 FLOPs "All inner language models and DataRater models are based on the Chinchilla [Hoffmann et al., 2022] transformer architectures [Vaswani et al., 2017]." "Meta-training a DataRater requires approximately 58.4% of the FLOPS needed to train a single 1B LLM."

The training run

What it physically took to train: which chips, how many, for how long, and what that drew from the wall.

What the numbers mean

Where it came from

DataRater test model (1B) was published by Google DeepMind, in United States of America, in May 2025. The organisation is categorised as industry.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing language modeling.

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

What went into building it

Producing it required around 1.2 × 10²⁰ FLOP of arithmetic, on Google TPU v6e Trillium, which is a statement about the training budget rather than about inference.

Answers

DataRater test model (1B) — common questions

01

How many parameters does DataRater test model (1B) have?

DataRater test model (1B) has 1B parameters. "A baseline 1B model is trained on the unfiltered dataset, while a second 1B model is trained analogously on the same dataset, but filtered by a DataRater.". That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.

02

Who created DataRater test model (1B)?

DataRater test model (1B) was published by Google DeepMind, based in United States of America, categorised as industry.

03

When was DataRater test model (1B) released?

DataRater test model (1B) was published in May 2025.

04

What is DataRater test model (1B) used for?

DataRater test model (1B) works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

05

How much compute was used to train DataRater test model (1B)?

Around 1.2 × 10²⁰ FLOP, on Google TPU v6e Trillium. That measures what producing the model cost and says nothing about how quickly it answers once trained — inference speed comes from memory bandwidth, not from the training budget.

06

What GPU do I need to run DataRater test model (1B)?

None. DataRater test model (1B) is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

07

Is DataRater test model (1B) open source?

The licensing for DataRater test model (1B) was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.
