Inference for generative ai models looks like a mine field, but there’s a simple protocol for picking the best inference:

🌍 95% of users >> If you’re using open (large) models and need fast online inference, then use Inference providers on auto mode, and let it choose the best provider for the model. https://huggingface.co/docs/inference-providers/index

👷 fine-tuners/ bespoke >> If you’ve got custom setups, use Inference Endpoints to define a configuration from AWS, Azure, GCP. https://endpoints.huggingface.co/

🦫 Locals >> If you’re trying to stretch everything you can out of a server or local machine, use Llama.cpp, Jan, LMStudio or vLLM. https://huggingface.co/settings/local-apps#local-apps

🪟 Browsers >> If you need open models running right here in the browser, use transformers.js. https://github.com/huggingface/transformers.js

Let me know what you’re using, and if you think it’s more complex than this.

You don't need remote APIs for a coding copliot, or the MCP Course! Set up a fully local IDE with MCP integration using Continue. In this tutorial Continue guides you through setting it up.

This is what you need to do to take control of your copilot:

1. Get the Continue extension from the [VS Code marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Continue.continue) to serve as the AI coding assistant.

2. Serve the model with an OpenAI compatible server in Llama.cpp / LmStudio/ etc.

llama-server -hf unsloth/Devstral-Small-2505-GGUF:Q4_K_M

3. Create a .continue/models/llama-max.yaml file in your project to tell Continue how to use the local Ollama model.
name: Llama.cpp model
    version: 0.0.1
    schema: v1
    models:
      - provider: llama.cpp
        model: unsloth/Devstral-Small-2505-GGUF
        apiBase: http://localhost:8080
        defaultCompletionOptions:
          contextLength: 8192 
    # Adjust based on the model
        name: Llama.cpp Devstral-Small
        roles:
          - chat
          - edit


4. Create a .continue/mcpServers/playwright-mcp.yaml file to integrate a tool, like the Playwright browser automation tool, with your assistant.

name: Playwright mcpServer
    version: 0.0.1
    schema: v1
    mcpServers:
      - name: Browser search
        command: npx
        args:
          - "@playwright/mcp@latest"

Brand new MCP Course has units are out, and now it's getting REAL! We've collaborated with Anthropic to dive deep into production ready and autonomous agents using MCP

🔗 mcp-course

This is what the new material covers and includes:

- Use Claude Code to build an autonomous PR agent
- Integrate your agent with Slack and Github to integrate it with you Team
- Get certified on your use case and share with the community
- Build an autonomous PR cleanup agent on the Hugging Face hub and deploy it with spaces

The material goes deep into these problems and helps you to build applications that work. We’re super excited to see what you build with it.

Super excited to release Autotrain MCP. This is an MCP server for training AI models, so you can use your AI tools to train your AI models 🤯.

🔗 burtenshaw/autotrain-mcp

Use this MCP server with tools like Claude Desktop, Cursor, VSCode, or Continue to do this:

- Define an ML problem like Image Classification, LLM fine-tuning, Text Classification, etc.
- The AI can retrieve models and datasets from the hub using the hub MCP.
- Training happens on a Hugging Face space, so no worries about hardware restraints.
- Models are pushed to the hub to be used inference tools like Llama.cpp, vLLM, MLX, etc.
- Built on top of the AutoTrain library, so it has full integration with transformers and other libraries.

Everything is still under active development, but I’m super excited to hear what people build, and I’m open to contributions!

Qwen 3 Fine tuning >> MoE. Update the experiment thread to include config and script for fine-tuning the Qwen3-30B-A3B model.

The goal is to make a low latency non-thinking model for a daily driver coding, so 3 billion parameters active should be perfect.

✔️ training running
✔️ evals running
⏭️ improve dataset

The moe isn't going to fit into colab's A100 even with quantization (🙏 @UnslothAI ). So I've been working on HF spaces' H100s for this. Everything is available in the tread and I'll share more tomorrow.

The rebooted LLM course starts today with an overhauled chapter 1 on Transformers:

👉 Follow the org to join the course: huggingface-course

We’re starting from the foundations of modern generative AI by looking at transformers. This chapter is expanded in depth and features so contains new material like:

FREE and CERTIFIED exam on fundamentals of transformers
deeper exploration of transformer architectures and attention mechanisms
end -to-end exploration of inference strategies for prefill and decode steps

The course has leveled up in complexity and depth, so this a great time to join in if you want to build you own AI models.

Hacked my presentation building with inference providers, Cohere command a, and sheer simplicity. Use this script if you’re burning too much time on presentations:

🔗 https://github.com/burtenshaw/course_generator/blob/main/scripts/create_presentation.py

This is what it does:
- uses command a to generates slides and speaker notes based on some material.
- it renders the material in remark open format and imports all images, tables, etc
- you can then review the slides as markdown and iterate
- export to either pdf or pptx using backslide

🚀 Next steps are: add text to speech for the audio and generate a video. This should make Hugging Face educational content scale to a billion AI Learners.

If you've followed the progress of robotics in the past 18 months, you've likely noticed how robotics is increasingly becoming the next frontier that AI will unlock.

At Hugging Face—in robotics and across all AI fields—we believe in a future where AI and robots are open-source, transparent, and affordable; community-built and safe; hackable and fun. We've had so much mutual understanding and passion working with the Pollen Robotics team over the past year that we decided to join forces!

You can already find our open-source humanoid robot platform Reachy 2 on the Pollen website and the Pollen community and people here on the hub at pollen-robotics

We're so excited to build and share more open-source robots with the world in the coming months!

The new DeepSite space is really insane for vibe-coders
enzostvs/deepsite

With the wave of vibe-coding-optimized LLMs like the latest open-source DeepSeek model (version V3-0324), you can basically prompt out-of-the-box and create any app and game in one-shot.

It feels so powerful to me, no more complex framework or under-the-hood prompt engineering to have a working text-to-app tool.

AI is eating the world and *open-source* AI is eating AI itself!

PS: and even more meta is that the DeepSite app and DeepSeek model are both fully open-source code => time to start recursively improve?

PPS: you still need some inference hosting unless you're running the 600B param model at home, so check the very nice list of HF Inference Providers for this model: deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3-0324

NEW UNIT in the Hugging Face Reasoning course. We dive deep into the algorithm behind DeepSeek R1 with an advanced and hands-on guide to interpreting GRPO.

🔗 reasoning-course

This unit is super useful if you’re tuning models with reinforcement learning. It will help with:

- interpreting loss and reward progression during training runs
- selecting effective parameters for training
- reviewing and defining effective reward functions

This unit also works up smoothly toward the existing practical exercises form @mlabonne and Unsloth.

📣 Shout out to @ShirinYamani who wrote the unit. Follow for more great content.

The Hugging Face Agents Course now includes three major agent frameworks!

🔗 agents-course

This includes LlamaIndex, LangChain, and our very own smolagents. We've worked to integrate the three frameworks in distinctive ways so that learners can reflect on when and where to use each.

This also means that you can follow the course if you're already familiar with one of these frameworks, and soak up some of the fundamental knowledge in earlier units.

Hopefully, this makes the agents course as open to as many people as possible.

✂️ Gemma 3 Abliterated

I noticed that Gemma 3 was much more resilient to refusal removal than other models like Qwen 2.5.

I experimented with different recipes and improved the abliteration technique I wrote about last year.

It's still experimental but the refusal rate is super low in my tests. Enjoy!
