| Summary | ||
| Verdict | Conditional Based on published licence terms, Gemma 4 31B ships under pure Apache 2.0 — a notable break from the Gemma Terms of Use used in prior generations — with no prohibited-use carve-outs. US origin carries Schrems-II and CLOUD-Act exposure, and at 30.7B dense the model likely crosses EU AI Act GPAI systemic-risk thresholds that enterprise deployers should document. | Conditional MiMo-V2.5 is the omnimodal sibling of MiMo-V2.5-Pro — text, vision, audio, and video on a single sparse-MoE backbone, also under MIT. Same posture as the Pro: deployable weights, but the China origin and stage-level training disclosure mean any EU rollout needs self-hosting plus a deployer-prepared GPAI compliance file, with extra attention to Article 50 transparency for synthetic and biometric outputs. |
