It's a sliding scale based on what you consider "generally intelligent" but they're getting smaller and smaller. This 27b model is comparable to 400b models not much over a year ago. But we'll start to see limits on how far that can go, maybe soon.
You can try different sizes of gemma3 models, though. The biggest one can answer a lot of things factually, while the smallest one is a hilarious hallucination factory, and the others are different levels in between.
