Why this model scores 57.1

Stronger reasoning, vision and function calling raise capability and limited agent utility. Broad open-weight deployment increases misuse exposure and downstream control difficulty.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to Gemma 3 12B IT

The model score of 57.1 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.02

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.
