Today in Privacy & AI Tooling - introducing a nifty new tool to examine where data goes in open-source apps on 🤗

HF Spaces have tons (100Ks!) of cool demos leveraging or examining AI systems - and because most of them are OSS we can see exactly how they handle user data 📚🔍

That requires actually reading the code though, which isn't always easy or quick! Good news: code LMs have gotten pretty good at automatic review, so we can offload some of the work - here I'm using Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct to generate reports and it works pretty OK 🙌

The app works in three stages:
1. Download all code files
2. Use the Code LM to generate a detailed report pointing to code where data is transferred/(AI-)processed (screen 1)
3. Summarize the app's main functionality and data journeys (screen 2)
4. Build a Privacy TLDR with those inputs

It comes with a bunch of pre-reviewed apps/Spaces, great to see how many process data locally or through (private) HF endpoints 🤗

Note that this is a POC, lots of exciting work to do to make it more robust, so:
- try it: yjernite/space-privacy
- reach out to collab: yjernite/space-privacy

AI agents are transforming how we interact with technology, but how sustainable are they? 🌍

Design choices — like model size and structure — can massively impact energy use and cost. ⚡💰 The key takeaway: smaller, task-specific models can be far more efficient than large, general-purpose ones.

🔑 Open-source models offer greater transparency, allowing us to track energy consumption and make more informed decisions on deployment. 🌱 Open-source = more efficient, eco-friendly, and accountable AI.

Read our latest, led by @sasha with assists from myself + @yjernite 🤗

I’ve just released logfire-callback on PyPI, designed to facilitate monitoring of Hugging Face Transformer training loops using Pydantic Logfire 🤗

The callback will automatically log training start with configuration parameters, periodic metrics and training completion ⏱️

Install the package using pip:
pip install logfire-callback

First, ensure you have a Logfire API token and set it as an environment variable:
export LOGFIRE_TOKEN=your_logfire_token

Then use the callback in your training code:
from transformers import Trainer, TrainingArguments
from logfire_callback import LogfireCallback

# Initialize your model, dataset, etc.

training_args = TrainingArguments(
    output_dir="./results",
    num_train_epochs=3,
    # ... other training arguments
)

trainer = Trainer(
    model=model,
    args=training_args,
    train_dataset=train_dataset,
    callbacks=[LogfireCallback()]  # Add the Logfire callback here
)

trainer.train()

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 🦆
