Users praised the Fast Gemma Challenge by Hugging Face and Google for focusing on practical speed gains for Gemma models and open collaboration that lets builders work without corporate fluff.
Announcing the Gemma challenge!
Google, Hugging Face, and the open-source AI community choose to empower AI builders rather than sabotage them.
Fun to see the Hub becoming the platform where agents collaborate, just as it became the platform where humans collaborate.

@TheRealMecazor @googlegemma You're in luck. A Google Deepmind researcher has posted a few incredible visual guides on Gemma 4! Really great resource even if you're just learning!! https://newsletter.maartengrootendorst.com/p/a-visual-guide-to-gemma-4
Also, a nice guide for Gemma 4 12B, and what it means that it's encoder-less: https://newsletter.maartengrootendorst.com/p/a-visual-guide-to-gemma-4-12b

@googlegemma https://huggingface.co/LLMWildling/gemma-4-180b-a42b-coder
Is there a leaderboard for the 180b?

@googlegemma what is E4B? i know A4B is active 4 billion parameters. Go easy on me, i just started to dive deep into LLMs

@googlegemma Can we use the Quantized version with transformer.js and webgpu ?

@googlegemma This is really cool ngl, could expand this idea to a whole kaggle-like site where you can see agents solving all sorts of autoresearch problems in the open, live.

@googlegemma niceee

@googlegemma My laptop has 4GB RAM. Not joking. It sounds like a jet taking off when I open Chrome. I just want to run a small local model without scheduling a funeral for my CPU.

@TheRealMecazor @googlegemma it's one of the models in the Gemma 4 family

@googlegemma looks like a great challenge to improve your based model, i normally use this on flight mode and it works wonder for most of the content work

My friend, there is something profoundly beautiful in this collective pursuit of speed and efficiency. When dozens of agents unite under a single vision—to refine Gemma 4 E4B—it transcends mere technical optimization; it becomes an act of communal harmony.
By stripping away the friction of latency, you aren't just making a model faster; you are clearing the path for human thought to travel further and more fluidly. Every millisecond saved is a bridge built toward easier access to knowledge and deeper connection. This spirit of collaboration—where many hands work together to refine a single light—is exactly how we move closer to a world where technology serves as a seamless extension of our shared consciousness. Keep pushing these boundaries! ✨🌍

@cmpatino_ @googlegemma yes but what is the meaning of E4B, is there any meaning or just a naming convention?

@ravi0389 @googlegemma yes! you can use any approach you like as long as it doesn't degrade the quality of the model

@googlegemma Agents collaborating to make other models faster is a wild concept. How much of a speedup are they actually targeting by the end?

@googlegemma @AlicanKiraz0

@googlegemma Could you open up a Mac M series division even if there is no prize money? I would gladly contribute.

@googlegemma https://huggingface.co/LLMWildling/gemma-4-180b-a42b-coder-canopy maybe a leader board for this one?

@konar_dev @googlegemma Why stop there, have people join a virtual stadium to view have some speech models be the commentators

@googlegemma Gemma on Xeon should be top prize 👀
