๐Ÿ“ข For those who wish to launch distilled DeepSeek R1 for reasoning with schema, sharing the Google Colab notebook:
๐Ÿ“™ https://github.com/nicolay-r/nlp-thirdgate/blob/master/tutorials/llm_deep_seek_7b_distill_colab.ipynb
This is a wrapper of the Qwen2 transformers ๐Ÿค— provider via bulk-chain framework.
Model: deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B
GPU: T4 (15GB) is nearly enough in float32 mode.
๐Ÿš€ To boost the performance you may set bf16 mode (use_bf16=True)

โœ… Hosting our own inference was not enough: now the Hub 4 new inference providers: fal, Replicate, SambaNova Systems, & Together AI.

Check model cards on the Hub: you can now, in 1 click, use inference from various providers (cf video demo)

Their inference can also be used through our Inference API client. There, you can use either your custom provider key, or your HF token, then billing will be handled directly on your HF account, as a way to centralize all expenses.

๐Ÿ’ธ Also, PRO users get 2$ inference credits per month!

And they start a huge effort on agentic capabilities.

๐Ÿš€ The performance improvements are crazy for such a fast model:
โ€ฃ Gemini 2.0 Flash outperforms the previous 1.5 Pro model at twice the speed
โ€ฃ Now supports both input AND output of images, video, audio and text
โ€ฃ Can natively use tools like Google Search and execute code

โžก๏ธ If the price is on par with previous Flash iteration ($0.30 / M tokens, to compare with GPT-4o's $1.25) the competition will have a big problem with this 4x cheaper model that gets better benchmarks ๐Ÿคฏ

๐Ÿค– What about the agentic capabilities?

โ€ฃ Project Astra: A universal AI assistant that can use Google Search, Lens and Maps
โ€ฃ Project Mariner: A Chrome extension that can complete complex web tasks (83.5% success rate on WebVoyager benchmark, this is really impressive!)
โ€ฃ Jules: An AI coding agent that integrates with GitHub workflows

I'll be eagerly awaiting further news from Google!

A team from NUS and Microsoft just released an agent that can act on any UI (Desktop, Android, Web) without needing additional text information. It works extremely well : they applied their method on a tiny Qwen2-VL-2B, and they managed to beat methods that use either much more powerful vision models (like GPT-4V) without using any additional info (e.g. leveraging the DOM of a webpage) like previous methods did ! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

They started from the idea that most existing methods rely heavily on text, which makes them less generalizable, while letting aside rich UI structure that user actually rely on when navigating this interfaces.

โš™๏ธ They put several good ideas to work:

๐Ÿ’ก Simplify screenshots to the max:
They prune a lot the heavy visual content of UI screenshots, by removing cloned image patches (like any vast patch of the same color will be reduced to a small patch, while maintaining positional embeddings), then group patches from the same GUI elements together to simplify even further

๐Ÿ’ก Build a truly generalist dataset:
To train a general UI agent, you need trajectories from each possible UI, and express them in a common language. Authors merge datasets like OmniAct for Desktop, Mind2Web for websites, AMEX for Android trajectories to create a high-quality and diverse dataset.

โžก๏ธ Nice results ensued:
They fine-tune a tiny Qwen-2-VL-2B on their method, and it reaches SOTA on several task (element identification, web navigation), even beating methods that either use additional info from the DOM or use much bigger VLMS like GPT-4v! ๐Ÿ†

And performance could certainly jump with a slightly bigger vision model. Let's hope the community builds this soon! ๐Ÿš€

We just released Transformers.js v3.1 and you're not going to believe what's now possible in the browser w/ WebGPU! ๐Ÿคฏ Let's take a look:
๐Ÿ”€ Janus from Deepseek for unified multimodal understanding and generation (Text-to-Image and Image-Text-to-Text)
๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Qwen2-VL from Qwen for dynamic-resolution image understanding
๐Ÿ”ข JinaCLIP from Jina AI for general-purpose multilingual multimodal embeddings
๐ŸŒ‹ LLaVA-OneVision from ByteDance for Image-Text-to-Text generation
๐Ÿคธโ€โ™€๏ธ ViTPose for pose estimation
๐Ÿ“„ MGP-STR for optical character recognition (OCR)
๐Ÿ“ˆ PatchTST & PatchTSMixer for time series forecasting

That's right, everything running 100% locally in your browser (no data sent to a server)! ๐Ÿ”ฅ Huge for privacy!

Check out the release notes for more information. ๐Ÿ‘‡

โš ๏ธ People selling AI chatbots for websites hate us.
Add an open source chat assistant on your website in 5 minutes: https://github.com/phospho-app/ai-chat-bubble

How does it work ?
- You give an URL
- The AI assistant crawls the website content and embed it
- Add it to your frontend in one line of code
- People on your website can ask the assistant questions

Been reading about the "bigger models = better AI" narrative getting pushed back today.

@thomwolf tackled this head on at Web Summit and highlighted how important small models are (and why closed-source companies haven't pushed for this ๐Ÿ˜ฌ). They're crushing it: today's 1B parameter models outperform last year's 10B models.

Fascinating to hear him talk about the secret sauce behind this approach.
