If you haven't already, I strong recommend reading @chiphuyen 's AI Engineering https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/216848047-ai-engineering

It comes complete with a section on open source AI (of obvious interest to the crowd here) and more than one mention of the Hugging Face community 🤗

In my opinion, one of the best parts is that it is a compendium for seminal and cutting-edge AI resources, with nearly 250 arXiv papers cited. I've done my best to collect them all in a single place, organized by chapter and by order in which they appear in the book:

Happy reading 🤓

Time flies!

Six months after joining Hugging Face the Xet team is kicking off the first migrations from LFS to our storage for a number of repositories on the Hub.

More on the nitty gritty details behind the migration soon, but here are the big takeaways:

🤖 We've successfully completed the first migrations from LFS -> Xet to test the infrastructure and prepare for a wider release

✅ No action on your part needed - you can work with a Xet-backed repo like any other repo on the Hub (for now - major improvements on their way!)

👀 Keep an eye out for the Xet logo to see if a repo you know is on our infra! See the screenshots below to spot the difference 👇

⏩ ⏩ ⏩ Blazing uploads and downloads coming soon. W’re gearing up for a full integration with the Hub's Python library that will make building on the Hub faster than ever - special thanks to @celinah and @Wauplin for their assistance.

🎉 Want Early Access? If you’re curious and want to test it out the bleeding edge that will power the development experience on the Hub, we’d love to partner with you. Let me know!

This is the culmination of a lot of effort from the entire team. Big round of applause to @sirahd @brianronan @jgodlewski @hoytak @seanses @assafvayner @znation @saba9 @rajatarya @port8080 @yuchenglow

I am pleased to introduce my first project built upon Hugging Face’s smolagents framework, integrated with Alpaca for financial market analysis automation 🦙🤗

The project implements technical indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Bollinger Bands to provide momentum and volatility analysis. Market data is retrieved through the Alpaca API, enabling access to historical price information across various timeframes.

AI-powered insights are generated using Hugging Face’s inference API, facilitating the analysis of market trends through natural language processing with DuckDuckGo search integration for real-time sentiment analysis based on financial news 🦆

Toward the end of last year, the Xet team provided an inside look into the foundations of how we plan to enable rapid experimentation and iteration for the AI builders on the Hub: https://huggingface.co/blog/from-files-to-chunks

But it turns out chunks aren't all you need!

Our goal is to bring:
🚀 Faster uploads
⏬ Speedy downloads
💪 All without sacrificing your workflow

To do that, we need the infrastructure and system and design to back it up. As we prepare to roll out the first Xet-backed repositories on the Hub, we wrote up a post explaining the nitty gritty details of the decisions that bring this to life https://huggingface.co/blog/from-chunks-to-blocks

Complete with an interactive visualization that shows the power of deduplication in action - taking a 191GB repo to ~97GB and shaving a few hours off upload speeds.

The darker each block in the heatmap, the more we dedupe, the less we have to transfer. Clicking on a file's blocks shows all other files that share blocks.

Check it out and explore for yourself! xet-team/quantization-dedup
