whatmodel.sh / DiffusionGemma 26B-A4B

DiffusionGemma 26B-A4B is an open-weights language model from Google, released June 2026. Its published size is 25.82B parameters (3.8B active per token) and a 262k-token context window. Licence: apache-2.0.

Catalogue identity notes

google/diffusiongemma-26B-A4B-it @f7f5b7f (created 2026-06-09, licence apache-2.0). Google's block-diffusion Gemma 4 variant (June 2026; 25.2B total / 3.8B active per the card; text and image input). Comparison-only for now: the card's inference path is transformers' DiffusionGemmaForBlockDiffusion (no one-line command) and the GGUF needs a llama.cpp branch with llama-diffusion-cli, so no run option is claimed. Lab rows from its own card, paired with the catalogued Gemma 4 26B-A4B column.

$ how the score was worked out · google/diffusiongemma-26B-A4B… 99%

Each result implies a score on its own, after adjusting for how hard its test is and who ran it. The score is their weighted average, with a small pull toward the middle for thinly tested models. Each test's weight is its counts column above; here it's added up by who ran the tests. How it works
