Closed weights Google DeepMind December 2024

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.

What the numbers mean

About this model

Genie 2 was published by Google DeepMind, in United States of America, in December 2024. industry is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Games, Video, 3D modeling, and is recorded as doing video generation, Text-to-video.

This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.

Answers

Genie 2 — common questions

01

How many parameters does Genie 2 have?

No parameter count has been published for Genie 2, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.

02

Who created Genie 2?

Genie 2 was published by Google DeepMind, based in United States of America, categorised as industry.

03

When was Genie 2 released?

Genie 2 was published in December 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

04

What is Genie 2 used for?

Genie 2 works in Games, Video, 3D modeling, and is recorded as handling video generation, Text-to-video. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.

05

What GPU do I need to run Genie 2?

None. Genie 2 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.

06

Is Genie 2 open source?
