Google has released EmbeddingGemma 2, an open model that converts content across media types into numerical vectors for comparison.[^1]

This is the first open embedding model released with native multimodal support across text, code, image, audio and video.[^2]

Integration support for EmbeddingGemma 2 was added in version 5.19.0 published to GitHub.[^4]

On 5 October, OpenAI published 722 mathematical manuscripts grouped into 372 result families, generated by an unreleased internal model.[^3]
