๐ StepFun้ถ่ทๆ่พฐ is making BIG open moves!
Last year, their GOT-OCR 2.0 took the community by storm ๐ฅbut many didnโt know they were also building some amazing models. Now, theyโve just dropped something huge on the hub!
๐บ Step-Video-T2V: a 30B bilingual open video model that generates 204 frames (8-10s) at 540P resolution with high information density & consistency. stepfun-ai/stepvideo-t2v
๐ฏ Perplexity drops their FIRST open-weight model on Hugging Face: A decensored DeepSeek-R1 with full reasoning capabilities. Tested on 1000+ examples for unbiased responses.
๐ Multimodal > OpenGVLab released InternVideo 2.5 Chat models, new video LMs with long context > AIDC released Ovis2 model family along with Ovis dataset, new vision LMs in different sizes (1B, 2B, 4B, 8B, 16B, 34B), with video and OCR support > ColQwenStella-2b is a multilingual visual retrieval model that is sota in it's size > Hoags-2B-Exp is a new multilingual vision LM with contextual reasoning, long context video understanding
๐ฌ LLMs A lot of math models! > Open-R1 team released OpenR1-Math-220k large scale math reasoning dataset, along with Qwen2.5-220K-Math fine-tuned on the dataset, OpenR1-Qwen-7B > Nomic AI released new Nomic Embed multilingual retrieval model, a MoE with 500 params with 305M active params, outperforming other models > DeepScaleR-1.5B-Preview is a new DeepSeek-R1-Distill fine-tune using distributed RL on math > LIMO is a new fine-tune of Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct on Math
๐ฃ๏ธ Audio > Zonos-v0.1 is a new family of speech recognition models, which contains the model itself and embeddings
๐ผ๏ธ Vision and Image Generation > We have ported DepthPro of Apple to transformers for your convenience! > illustrious-xl-v1.0 is a new illustration generation model
๐ Introducing @huggingface Open Deep-Research๐ฅ
In just 24 hours, we built an open-source agent that: โ Autonomously browse the web โ Search, scroll & extract info โ Download & manipulate files โ Run calculations on data
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? 2.5Mโnearly 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. ๐
The most popular community model? @bartowski's DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF version โ 1M downloads alone.
llama.cpp is 26.8% faster than ollama. I have upgraded both, and using the same settings, I am running the same DeepSeek R1 Distill 1.5B on the same hardware. It's an Apples to Apples comparison.
Multimodal ๐ฌ - We have released SmolVLM -- tiniest VLMs that come in 256M and 500M, with it's retrieval models ColSmol for multimodal RAG ๐ - UI-TARS are new models by ByteDance to unlock agentic GUI control ๐คฏ in 2B, 7B and 72B - Alibaba DAMO lab released VideoLlama3, new video LMs that come in 2B and 7B - MiniMaxAI released Minimax-VL-01, where decoder is based on MiniMax-Text-01 456B MoE model with long context - Dataset: Yale released a new benchmark called MMVU - Dataset: CAIS released Humanity's Last Exam (HLE) a new challenging MM benchmark
LLMs ๐ - DeepSeek-R1 & DeepSeek-R1-Zero: gigantic 660B reasoning models by DeepSeek, and six distilled dense models, on par with o1 with MIT license! ๐คฏ - Qwen2.5-Math-PRM: new math models by Qwen in 7B and 72B - NVIDIA released AceMath and AceInstruct, new family of models and their datasets (SFT and reward ones too!)
Audio ๐ฃ๏ธ - Llasa is a new speech synthesis model based on Llama that comes in 1B,3B, and 8B - TangoFlux is a new audio generation model trained from scratch and aligned with CRPO
Image/Video/3D Generation โฏ๏ธ - Flex.1-alpha is a new 8B pre-trained diffusion model by ostris similar to Flux - tencent released Hunyuan3D-2, new 3D asset generation from images
Today we make the biggest release in smolagents so far: ๐๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐บ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐น๐, ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฏ๐๐ถ๐น๐ฑ ๐ฝ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ณ๐๐น ๐๐ฒ๐ฏ ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐๐! ๐ฅณ
Our agents can now casually open up a web browser, and navigate on it by scrolling, clicking elements on the webpage, going back, just like a user would.
The demo below shows Claude-3.5-Sonnet browsing GitHub for task: "Find how many commits the author of the current top trending repo did over last year." Hi @mlabonne !
Go try it out, it's the most cracked agentic stuff I've seen in a while ๐คฏ (well, along with OpenAI's Operator who beat us by one day)
