Ovis2 🔥 a multimodal LLM released by Alibaba AIDC team. AIDC-AI/ovis2-67ab36c7e497429034874464 ✨1B/2B/4B/8B/16B/34B ✨Strong CoT for deeper problem solving ✨Multilingual OCR – Expanded beyond English & Chinese, with better data extraction
⭐️ The AI Energy Score project just launched - this is a game-changer for making informed decisions about AI deployment.
You can now see exactly how much energy your chosen model will consume, with a simple 5-star rating system. Think appliance energy labels, but for AI.
Looking at transcription models on the leaderboard is fascinating: choosing between whisper-tiny or whisper-large-v3 can make a 7x difference. Real-time data on these tradeoffs changes everything.
166 models already evaluated across 10 different tasks, from text generation to image classification. The whole thing is public and you can submit your own models to test.
Why this matters: - Teams can pick efficient models that still get the job done - Developers can optimize for energy use from day one - Organizations can finally predict their AI environmental impact
If you're building with AI at any scale, definitely worth checking out.
🔥 Video AI is taking over! Out of 17 papers dropped on Hugging Face today, 6 are video-focused - from Sliding Tile Attention to On-device Sora. The race for next-gen video tech is heating up! 🎬🚀
📢 SmolLM2 paper released! Learn how the 🤗 team built one of the best small language models: from data choices to training insights. Check out our findings and share your thoughts! 🤏💡
Xwen 🔥 a series of open models based on Qwen2.5 models, developed by a brilliant research team of PhD students from the Chinese community. shenzhi-wang/xwen-chat-679e30ab1f4b90cfa7dbc49e ✨ 7B/72B ✨ Apache 2.0 ✨ Xwen-72B-Chat outperformed DeepSeek V3 on Arena Hard Auto
Small but mighty: 82M parameters, runs locally, speaks multiple languages. The best part? It's Apache 2.0 licensed! This could unlock so many possibilities ✨
🚀 The open source community is unstoppable: 4M total downloads for DeepSeek models on Hugging Face, with 3.2M coming from the +600 models created by the community.
Yes, DeepSeek R1's release is impressive. But the real story is what happened in just 7 days after:
- Original release: 8 models, 540K downloads. Just the beginning...
- The community turned those open-weight models into +550 NEW models on Hugging Face. Total downloads? 2.5M—nearly 5X the originals.
The reason? DeepSeek models are open-weight, letting anyone build on top of them. Interesting to note that the community focused on quantized versions for better efficiency & accessibility. They want models that use less memory, run faster, and are more energy-efficient.
When you empower builders, innovation explodes. For everyone. 🚀
The most popular community model? @bartowski's DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF version — 1M downloads alone.
