It’s interesting to see Google staying consistently involved in the medical AI space going back to the PaLM / Med-PaLM days. Whatever is driving that commitment, it’s nice to see, there’s a lot of real upside here in terms of improving patient outcomes.
I was a bit surprised that only the 4B MedGemma variant was updated, but after checking the Hugging Face download stats it makes sense. The 4B model has ~350k downloads, while the next most popular variant sits around ~25k.
