If the model weights is not open, you can't run it on device anyways.

The Pixel 9 runs many small proprietary Gemini models on the internal TPU.

And yet these new models still haven’t reached feature parity with Google Assistant, which can turn my flashlight on, but with all the power of burning down a rainforest, Gemini still cannot interact with my actual phone.

I just tried asking my phone to turn on the flashlight using Gemini. It worked. https://9to5google.com/2024/11/07/gemini-utilities-extension...

Ok I tried literally last week on Pixel 7a and it didn’t work. What model do you have? Maybe it requires a phone that can do on-device models?

Works on a Pixel 4A 5G..

Pretty sure that's not doing any fancy on-device models!

That said, there was a popup today saying that assistant is now using Gemini, so I just enabled it to try. Could well have changed in the last week.

I just tried it on my Galaxy Ultra s23 and it worked. I then disconnected internet and it did not work.

Gemini nano weights are leaked and google doesn't care about it being leaked. Google would definitely care if Pro weights are leaked.

Is there any phone in the world that can realistically run pro weights?
