About this model
Gemma 3 27B Instruct is the largest instruction-tuned model in Google's Gemma 3 open-weight family, released alongside smaller siblings. Positioned as the direct successor to Gemma 2, it introduces multimodality for the first time in the line: an integrated SigLIP-based vision encoder lets it accept image inputs and produce text outputs, while earlier Gemma generations were text-only. Google describes Gemma 3 as its most capable model that can run on a single GPU or TPU.
Compared with its predecessor, Gemma 3 expands the context window to 128K tokens, adopts a tokenizer with stronger multilingual coverage across 140-plus languages, and adds structured outputs and function calling. Google attributes improved math, coding, and instruction-following to a training pipeline using distillation plus reinforcement learning from human, machine, and execution feedback, trained on TPUs.
The model handles tasks such as analyzing images, answering visual questions, comparing images, and reading text within an image. Google also notes that quantization-aware training lets the 27B model run on more modest hardware.
Within the broader Gemma line, this release was later succeeded by Google Gemma 4 31B Instruct and the mixture-style Google Gemma 4 26B A4B Instruct, which continue the family's open-weight approach.
