What changed from PaLM

Compared with the previous release in this series. A field appears only when both records state a value — where one does not, it is listed as uncomparable rather than dropped, because a gap in our research is not a finding about the model.

Not comparable: Context window (not disclosed for both releases); Parameters (not disclosed for both releases)
