Google's Gemma 4 12B processes images and audio without encoders

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

Google has released Gemma 4 12B, a lightweight, multimodal AI model designed to run on consumer hardware with as little as 16GB of VRAM. This model uniquely processes images and audio without traditional encoders, reducing memory usage and latency. For images, it uses a 35 million parameter embedding module to convert pixel data into a format usable by the LLM, while audio is processed by tokenizing 40-millisecond segments directly. AI

IMPACT Enables more efficient multimodal AI processing on consumer hardware, potentially lowering barriers to entry for complex AI applications.
