Gemma 4 on Cerebras - The Fastest Inference Is Now Multimodal (www.cerebras.ai)

Cerebras has launched Gemma 4 31B, a multimodal model capable of processing over 1,800 tokens per second, marking a significant advancement in AI inference speed and versatility. Utilizing Cerebras's wafer-scale technology, Gemma 4 allows developers to integrate images—such as screenshots, charts, and documents—into their workflows, enhancing the speed and responsiveness of visual and agentic operations previously limited by GPU latency. This groundbreaking performance sets a new standard, with Gemma 4 operating 35 times faster than typical GPU endpoints and returning the first answer token in just 1.5 seconds, making it suitable for real-time applications. As the flagship of Google DeepMind's open-weight Gemma family, Gemma 4 balances high intelligence and efficiency without the memory constraints of models built on Mixture of Experts (MoE). Its multimodal capabilities enable workflows that combine text and images, laying the groundwork for innovative applications in various fields including document processing, computer use, and robotics. The introduction of Gemma 4 on Cerebras not only propels the potential for rapid development and iteration but also redefines the possibilities for product experiences in AI, as developers can now create more responsive and intelligent systems that involve complex reasoning and interactions with visual content in real-time.
