This repository hosts the word2vec pre-trained Google News corpus (3 billion running words) word vector model (3 million 300-dimension English word vectors).
It is mirroring the data from the official word2vec website:
GoogleNews-vectors-negative300.bin.gz
The motivation was to provide an easy (programmatical) way to download the model file via git clone instead of accessing the Google Drive link.
You will need to install git lfs to be able to clone this.
