This real-time webcam demo combining #HuggingFace's new SmolVLM model with llama.cpp is incredible. In the video, you hold objects like a teapot, cup, or calculator up to the camera, and the model identifies them correctly within 500ms. It's compactly designed with only 500 million parameters, runs seamlessly on the device, and has no API costs. It's a perfect step towards local inference and could be an instant visual analysis tool for content creators. I think everything open source accelerates AI. You can try it with a simple setup from the #Github repository; the future of accessible AI is here. #AI #ComputerVision #MachineLearning #SmolVLM #OpenSourceAI
