Gemma 4 and Gemini: Two Paths Shaping Google’s AI Strategy

Google has launched Gemma 4, a lightweight and open AI model designed to run directly on devices, including Android phones and laptop GPUs. In contrast to Gemini, which is a polished, managed commercial ecosystem, Gemma 4 provides developers with full control over their data and infrastructure. This model introduces advanced reasoning capabilities and multimodal processing, enabling various applications such as speech recognition and visual analysis.
