Google's open-source TPU microbenchmark suite provides developers with granular performance metrics across Network, Compute, HBM, Host Transfer, and Attention components to validate real-world hardware capabilities. By leveraging these benchmarks to establish a Roofline model, engineers can accurately diagnose whether their machine learning workloads are compute-, memory-, or network-bound. This empirical baseline directly guides targeted software optimizations—such as kernel tuning, mesh sharding, and rematerialization—to maximize hardware utilization for large-scale model deployments.

Help me create in Google Forms now supports generating quizzes.

With this launch, you can quickly create a quiz by writing a specific prompt for Help me create describing the quiz you want to create. Your prompt can reference Google Drive files like Docs, Slides or PDFs to use as sources for the quiz, should you choose.

Gemini then generates a quiz incorporating details from any files you reference, with appropriate quiz settings, including correct answers for each question. Gemini supports different question types like multiple choice, grid, checkboxes, and grid question types.

You can preview the quiz after it's generated, and adjust the content of the generated quiz after inserting it, as needed.
