The model is intended for advanced local and research use, offering strong instruction-following, reasoning, coding, and (for the VLM) multimodal image + text understanding, with minimal additional alignment constraints. --- ## Model Overview - **Model Name**: Gemma 3 – 12B IT Uncensored - **VLM Variant**: Gemma 3 – 12B IT VLM Uncensored - **Base Architecture**: Gemma 3, 12 billion parameters (12B) - **Base Model Developer**: Google - **Curator / Release**: BrainDAO - **License**: Gemma License (inherits from the base model) - **Intended Use**: Instruction following, reasoning, coding, conversation, and multimodal understanding --- ## What Is This Model? This is an **uncensored derivative** of the Gemma 3 12B Instruction-Tuned (IT) model. No additional safety layers, refusals, or alignment constraints have been intentionally added beyond those present in the base model. The goal is to provide: - Greater freedom in system prompt design - Fewer artificial refusals - Strong general reasoning and instruction adherence - Full user control in local or private deployments --- ## Key Features & Capabilities ### Text Model (LLM) - High-quality instruction following - Strong logical and analytical reasoning - Coding assistance across multiple programming languages - Conversational and assistant-style interactions - Suitable for agentic and tool-augmented workflows ### Vision-Language Model (VLM) - Image understanding and description - Visual question answering (VQA) - Image + text instruction following - Multimodal chat and assistant use cases --- ## Chat Template & System Prompt The model follows the **Gemma instruction format**. Example: ``` system You are a helpful AI assistant. user {your prompt here} assistant ``` For the **VLM variant**, images must be provided using the multimodal input format supported by your inference framework. --- ## Intended Use Cases - **General-purpose assistant** — reasoning, writing, and conversation - **Coding assistant** — generation, debugging, and refactoring - **Research & analysis** — structured reasoning and synthesis - **Agentic workflows** — tool use, planners, function calling - **Multimodal applications (VLM)** — image QA, captioning, visual reasoning - **Local & private deployment** — full control over data and prompts --- ## License & Usage Notes This model inherits the **Gemma License** from its base model (*google/gemma-3-12b-it*). - The Gemma License is a **custom license provided by Google** - You must review and comply with the Gemma terms of use before downloading, using, or redistributing this model - This repository does not relicense the model under Apache-2.0, MIT, or any other standard open-source license Users are solely responsible for ensuring their use complies with the Gemma License and all applicable laws and regulations. --- ## Acknowledgements - Google for the Gemma 3 architecture and base model - BrainDAO for curation and release - The open-source community supporting local inference, quantization, and deployment tools --- ## Community & Support - Use the Hugging Face Discussions tab for questions and updates - Community feedback and contributions are welcome
