    Google Releases EmbeddingGemma 2 Paper: A 744M-Parameter On-Device Multimodal Embedding Model

    Google has released the EmbeddingGemma 2 paper, an Apache 2.0-licensed on-device multimodal embedding model that maps text, code, images, audio, and video into the same vector space. The model is built on Gemma 4 and tuned through contrastive training by learning from the larger Gemini Embedding 2; with 744M parameters, it surpasses models 2 to 12 times larger on multiple tasks. On the Pixel 11 Pro, the quantized text weights occupy about 191MB of active memory, while the full multimodal model takes about 567MB; the context window is expanded 4 times to 8K tokens, accommodating about 5.5 minutes of audio, 29 images, or 58 video frames; directly embedding speech scores 69.54 on the MSEB spoken query retrieval benchmark, higher than the 57.59 of transcribing first and then retrieving, and code retrieval on MTEB Code improves from 68.76 in EmbeddingGemma 1 to 78.68.

    Neuralink Publishes Early VOICE Project Data: ALS Patient Reaches 75 Words Per Minute Output in First Week After Implant

    Neuralink released a blog post on October 28, publicly disclosing the early feasibility study of its speech restoration project VOICE. One participant with ALS reached an output rate of 75 words per minute in the first week of use, with a word error rate of 5.8% on a large vocabulary of 125,000 words. The study's lead investigator, Dr. Nader Pouratian, has presented the relevant data at the 2026 NEALS annual meeting. The study plans to enroll approximately 6 participants who have lost the ability to communicate due to ALS, spinal cord injury, or stroke, and its primary endpoint is device- or procedure-related adverse events within 12 months after implantation. Neuralink has not yet published a complete peer-reviewed paper; the figures come from a single participant, and the company has not explained the types of test tasks, the separate performance of text versus speech output, or long-term effects.
