Google’s Project Suncatcher satellite boots TPUs and runs Gemma 4, returns first response
Google says its Project Suncatcher satellite successfully booted onboard TPUs and used the Gemma 4 model to generate a haiku from orbit, marking the system's first transmitted AI response. The company plans further tests of TPU performance under thermal stress and radiation and says this work paves the way toward twin interconnected satellites planned for 2027.
