Hugging Face Inc. today open-sourced SmolVLM-256M, a new vision language model with the lowest parameter count in its category. The algorithm’s small footprint allows it to run on devices such as ...

Chinese AI startup Zhipu AI aka Z.ai has released its GLM-4.6V series, a new generation of open-source vision-language models (VLMs) optimized for multimodal reasoning, frontend automation, and ...

Deepseek VL-2 is a sophisticated vision-language model designed to address complex multimodal tasks with remarkable efficiency and precision. Built on a new mixture of experts (MoE) architecture, this ...

As I highlighted in my last article, two decades after the DARPA Grand Challenge, the autonomous vehicle (AV) industry is still waiting for breakthroughs—particularly in addressing the “long tail ...

Foundation models have made great advances in robotics, enabling the creation of vision-language-action (VLA) models that generalize to objects, scenes, and tasks beyond their training data. However, ...

Imagine a world where your devices not only see but truly understand what they’re looking at—whether it’s reading a document, tracking where someone’s gaze lands, or answering questions about a video.
