PaLM 2 delivered strong 2023-era general language, reasoning and coding capability without native agency. Immediate use across more than 25 products and API access drove very high deployment, while centralized service controls kept misuse and control difficulty moderate.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to PaLM 2

The model score of 45.7 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+0.16

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.
