Frequently asked questions
Gemma 2 9B IT SPPO Iter3 is too large for current iPhones. It runs on Mac with enough unified memory inside Private LLM, fully offline.
Yes. Gemma 2 9B IT SPPO Iter3 runs on Macs with enough unified memory, such as Mac (Apple Silicon, 192GB), MacBook Pro (M4 Max, 128GB), Mac Studio / Pro (Apple Silicon, 96GB), MacBook Pro (M4 Max, 64GB), MacBook Pro (M4 Max, 48GB), MacBook Pro (M4 Max, 36GB), Mac (Apple Silicon, 32GB), MacBook Air (M4, 24GB), MacBook Air (M-series, 16GB), fully on-device in Private LLM.

Why run Gemma 2 9B IT SPPO Iter3 in Private LLM
Private LLM has run local AI on iPhone, iPad, and Mac since 2023, before Apple Intelligence existed. Inference happens on your device, so your Gemma 2 9B IT SPPO Iter3 conversations never reach a server. The part most apps gloss over is quantization, and that is exactly where on-device quality is won or lost. Most llama.cpp and MLX wrappers ship the same off-the-shelf 4-bit RTN weights. Private LLM ships GPTQ and OmniQuant quantization, tuned per model, and our 3-bit OmniQuant models match or beat those 4-bit RTN builds on the same Apple Silicon. Run the same model both ways and you feel it in the first reply. See how our quantization works.
Specifications and summary come from Gemma 2 9B IT SPPO Iter3's Hugging Face model card, released under the Gemma license. Private LLM ships its own quantized models, built with OmniQuant quantization tuned per model, and isn't affiliated with the model's authors.
