Gemma 3, introduced by Google DeepMind, represents a major advancement in democratizing AI access by offering state-of-the-art open models that balance power and portability. Built upon the success of its predecessor, which saw over 100 million downloads, Gemma 3 delivers superior performance while optimizing efficiency for deployment across various devices, from mobile phones to high-performance workstations. Available in multiple sizes (1B, 4B, 12B, and 27B parameters), it allows developers to match models to specific hardware constraints. With enhanced multilingual capabilities supporting over 140 languages and cutting-edge multimodal reasoning for text, images, and videos, Gemma 3 facilitates diverse AI applications. Its expanded 128k-token context window and function-calling features further enhance its ability to process complex tasks, making it a versatile tool for developers worldwide.

Complementing this release, ShieldGemma 2 provides a robust 4B parameter image safety checker, ensuring secure AI applications by identifying dangerous, explicit, or violent content. Gemma 3's seamless integration with popular AI frameworks like Hugging Face, PyTorch, and JAX, alongside support for Google Cloud TPUs, AMD GPUs, and NVIDIA optimizations, makes it highly adaptable for developers. The Gemmaverse ecosystem fosters collaborative AI innovation, exemplified by projects like SEA-LION v3 for Southeast Asian languages and BgGPT for Bulgarian. Google DeepMind also supports academic research through the Gemma 3 Academic Program, offering $10,000 in Google Cloud credits to researchers. By prioritizing responsible AI development, accessibility, and innovation, Gemma 3 establishes itself as a leading force in the evolution of open AI technology.
