Ollama v0.40.10-rc0 adds Gemma 4 renderer and Mlx support

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Ollama has released version v0.40.10-rc0, introducing updates to its Gemma renderers. This release includes a new Gemma 4 renderer variant that processes assistant content before tool calls, differing from the previous method of processing after tool responses. The update also enhances support for Gemma 4 targets within Mlx, enabling the loading of draft-owned output heads and preserving the DFlash model path. Additionally, it exposes Gemma 4 hidden-state taps and raw logits for speculative decoding, while reporting safetensors target precision separately from quantized draft weights. AI

IMPACT Enhances Ollama's capabilities for running Gemma models, potentially improving local AI inference performance.
