You don't get to take distilled model home, it all stays with Google.
It's "optimize your costs in our garden" product.
yup, strings are certainly attached when dealing with US Big Tech / Ai
I recommend Fireworks as an alternative
But nobody wants to distill Google's models, Gemini is really bad.
I think GLM 5.2 is in part distilled from it.
strong agreement, I've stopped using all closed weight models on principle, but the latest gemini models have increased hallucinations and now talk back, so double reason not to use them
