Google DeepMind · 19 December 2025

Gemma Scope 2: open interpretability tools for every Gemma 3 size (270M to 27B), built from about 110 PB of data and 1T+ trained parameters.

Combines sparse autoencoders and transcoders so researchers can study jailbreaks, hallucinations and sycophancy inside the model. Google calls it the largest open-source interpretability release by a lab to date. Demo via Neuronpedia.
