Tested Gemma 4 (31B) on our benchmark. Genuinely did not expect this. 100% survival, 5 out of 5 runs profitable, +1,144% median ROI. At $0.20 per run. It outperforms GPT-5.2 ($4.43/run), Gemini 3 Pro ($2.95/run), Sonnet 4.6 ($7.90/run), and absolutely destroys every Chinese open-source model we've tested - Qwen 3.5 397B, Qwen 3.5 9B, DeepSeek V3.2, GLM-5. None of them even survive consistently. The only model that beats Gemma 4 is Opus 4.6 at $36 per run. That's 180× expensive. 31B parameters. Twenty cents.
