Why this model scores 38.1

Modest base capability and minimal agency were offset by downloadable weights, broad hardware compatibility and unrestricted adaptation outside provider-run safeguards.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to Gemma 2B Base

The model score of 38.1 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.02

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.

DoomBench social sharing card for Gemma 2B Base.
  1. Gemma 2B Base by Google has a DoomBench model risk score of 38.1 out of 100, based on five transparent version-specific dimensions rather than the overall index.

  2. Gemma 2B Base's highest current DoomBench dimension is deployment at 96.0 out of 100; the profile publishes every component score and its editorial rationale.

  3. DoomBench links 1 source-backed evidence item to Gemma 2B Base, while keeping the model's risk profile separate from each item's contribution to the live Doom Index.
