Picked by rule from 35 tracked pieces: the lab's own post, the most shared, a field report, the latest.
An open-source implementation of Jev option scoring runs on local Gemma 3 4B models using MLX on Apple silicon or PyTorch on other platforms.
The 2 picks above, plus these 23. Top is the radar's score: discussion, source authority and the lab's own posts, fading with age.
Live hosted endpoints, cheapest first, USD per million tokens. Ties break on output price, then provider name.
2 providers with a live price, from $0.040 to $0.050 per million input tokens; the median is $0.045. One dot per provider, cheapest in teal.
Hugging Face does not say who downloads a model or with what. These are the proxies: API providers listing it, quantized builds, fine-tunes/adapters/merges, and Spaces that load it.
Served by 3 API providers; heavily run locally (492 quantized builds); a big base for builders (1,354 fine-tunes, adapters and merges).

Gemma 3 4B IT is an instruction-tuned multimodal model with 4.30B parameters.[1][2] It is released under the Gemma Terms of Use and supports a 128K context window.[3][4]
Generated 2026-10-07 14:59 UTC by parasail-gemma-4-26b-a4b-it; each numeral points at the fact it rests on. Not a verdict.
Labels are evidence, not verdicts: measured a third-party leaderboard row for this model; author-reported a number the model author published in the card or eval files; structural a deterministic signal from the name, config or chat template, or a decision-model estimate. Each chip links to its source. All use cases.

Ranked by source signals (HN, Lobsters, authority domains, official posts) and recency. Summaries are generated from a stored copy of the article text; every sentence cites a span of that text, and nothing is shown that failed the citation check.
arXiv links found in the model card and its tags. "Peer-reviewed" is shown only with evidence: a published venue in OpenAlex (measured) or the authors' own journal reference on arXiv (reported).
