什么是 Gemma-4 12B？

Gemma-4 12B is an encoder-free, unified multimodal model that runs directly on laptops with 16GB VRAM. It matches the performance of the 26B MOE with less than half the memory footprint, ships with Hermes and agent tools, macOS Edge Gallery, and RTLM, and is released under Apache 2.0.

Advances in image composition are simultaneously broken by Reve 2 and Ideogram 4, with Ideogram 4 now the top-ranked open image model on Arena. Microsoft released MAI-Thinking-1 achieving 97% on AIME 2025 without synthetic data or distillation, publishing detailed training stacks and MoE scaling. Frontier Tuning enables enterprise workflow models to reach GPT-5.4 quality with up to 10× efficiency gains, while Gemma 4 12B and others strengthen local-first deployment momentum.

Gemma 4 12B is a unified, encoder-free multimodal model bringing high-performance multimodal intelligence to your laptop. It matches the performance of our 26B MoE at less than half the memory footprint, supports native audio inputs, and runs locally on 16GB VRAM hardware with low-latency multi-step reasoning.

Gemma 4 12B model hits a sweet spot between size + performance: it can run locally on a laptop, while enabling powerful multi-step reasoning and agentic workflows.

Google AI Developers announce the launch of Gemma 4 12B, a unified, encoder-free model that integrates cutting-edge reasoning and native audio into a highly optimized footprint for laptops.
