jeffmcjunkinGoogle releases Gemma 4 open models
Thinking / reasoning + multimodal + tool calling.
We made some quants at https://huggingface.co/collections/unsloth/gemma-4 for folks to run them - they work really well!
Guide for those interested: https://unsloth.ai/docs/models/gemma-4
Also note to use temperature = 1.0, top_p = 0.95, top_k = 64 and the EOS is "<turn|>". "<|channel>thought\n" is also used for the thinking trace!
Hey, I tried to use Unsloth to run Gemma 4 locally but got stuck during the setup on Windows 11.
At some point it asked me to create a password, and right after that it threw an error. Here’s a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/sCMmqht
This happened after running the PowerShell setup, where it installed several things like NVIDIA components, VS Code, and Python. At the end, PowerShell tell me to open a http://localhost URL in my browser, and that’s where I was prompted to set the password before it failed.
Also, I noticed that an Unsloth icon was added to my desktop, but when I click it, nothing happens.
For context, I’m not a developer and I had never used PowerShell before. Some of the steps were a bit intimidating and I wasn’t fully sure what I was approving when clicking through.
The overall experience felt a bit rough for my level. It would be great if this could be packaged as a simple .exe or a standalone app instead of going through terminal and browser steps.
Are there any plans to make something like that?
