| This tiny model is for debugging. It is randomly initialized with the config adapted from [google/gemma-3-27b-it](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-3-27b-it). | |
| ### Example usage: | |
| ```python | |
| from transformers import pipeline | |
| model_id = "tiny-random/gemma-3" | |
| pipe = pipeline( | |
| "image-text-to-text", model=model_id, device="cuda", | |
| trust_remote_code=True, max_new_tokens=3, | |
| ) | |
| messages = [ | |
| { | |
| "role": "system", | |
| "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "You are a helpful assistant."}] | |
| }, | |

| "content": [ | |
| {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"}, | |
| {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"} | |
| ] | |
| } | |
| ] | |
| output = pipe(text=messages, max_new_tokens=5) | |
