Qwen2.5-Omni is soooo good that people build multimodal reasoning models off of it 🥹 > KE-Team/Ke-Omni-R-3B is open-source audio reasoning model sota on average of benchmarks, based on Qwen/Qwen2.5-Omni-3B 🗣️ > Haoz0206/Omni-R1 is a video reasoning model with pixel level grounding (see below) and it's super competitive ⏯️ based on Qwen/Qwen2.5-Omni-7B
vision LMs are saturated over benchmarks, so we built vibe eval 💬
> compare different models with refreshed in-the-wild examples in different categories 🤠 > submit your favorite model for eval no numbers -- just vibes!
emerging trend: models that can understand image + text and generate image + text
don't miss out ⤵️ > MMaDA: single 8B diffusion model aligned with CoT (reasoning!) + UniGRPO Gen-Verse/MMaDA > BAGEL: 7B MoT model based on Qwen2.5, SigLIP-so-400M, Flux VAE ByteDance-Seed/BAGEL both by ByteDance! 😱
multimodal 💬🖼️ > new moondream (VLM) is out: it's 4-bit quantized (with QAT) version of moondream-2b, runs on 2.5GB VRAM at 184 tps with only 0.6% drop in accuracy (OS) 🌚 > ByteDance released BAGEL-7B, an omni model that understands and generates both image + text. they also released Dolphin, a document parsing VLM 🐬 (OS) > Google DeepMind dropped MedGemma in I/O, VLM that can interpret medical scans, and Gemma 3n, an omni model with competitive LLM performance
> MMaDa is a new 8B diffusion language model that can generate image and text
LLMs > Mistral released Devstral, a 24B coding assistant (OS) 👩🏻💻 > Fairy R1-32B is a new reasoning model -- distilled version of DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B (OS) > NVIDIA released ACEReason-Nemotron-14B, new 14B math and code reasoning model > sarvam-m is a new Indic LM with hybrid thinking mode, based on Mistral Small (OS) > samhitika-0.0.1 is a new Sanskrit corpus (BookCorpus translated with Gemma3-27B)
image generation 🎨 > MTVCrafter is a new human motion animation generator
- It’s still free! - Video 1 walks you through onboarding to the course - The first live session is next week! - You can now get a certificate via exam app - We improved and written material with interactive quizzes
If you’re studying MCP and want a live, interactive, visual, certified course, then join us on the hub!
> first reasoning model for robotics > based on Qwen 2.5-VL-7B, use with Hugging Face transformers or vLLM 🤗 > comes with SFT & alignment datasets and a new benchmark 👏
hey hey @mradermacher - VB from Hugging Face here, we'd love to onboard you over to our optimised xet backend! 💥
as you know we're in the process of upgrading our storage backend to xet (which helps us scale and offer blazingly fast upload/ download speeds too): https://huggingface.co/blog/xet-on-the-hub and now that we are certain that the backend can scale with even big models like Llama 4/ Qwen 3 - we;re moving to the next phase of inviting impactful orgs and users on the hub over as you are a big part of the open source ML community - we would love to onboard you next and create some excitement about it in the community too!
in terms of actual steps - it should be as simple as one of the org admins to join hf.co/join/xet - we'll take care of the rest.
LLMs 💬 > Alibaba Qwen released WorldPM-72B, new World Preference Model trained with 15M preference samples (OS) > II-Medical-8B, new LLM for medical reasoning that comes in 8B by Intelligent-Internet > TRAIL is a new dataset by Patronus for trace error reasoning for agents (OS)
Multimodal 🖼️💬 > Salesforce Research released BLIP3o, a new any-to-any model with image-text input and image-text output 💬it’s based on an image encoder, a text decoder and a DiT, and comes in 8B > They also released pre-training and fine-tuning datasets > MMMG is a multimodal generation benchmark for image, audio, text (interleaved)
