GLM 5.2, open frontier-scale intelligence on Microsoft Foundry with AMD MI300X. Running a Codex goal with an open model never felt this good!

🌐 I've just released Sentence Transformers v5.4: we're going fully multimodal for embeddings & reranking! Also featuring a modular CrossEncoder, and automatic Flash Attention 2 input flattening. Highlights in 🧵
More embedding models and an even more reliable inference engine is what you get with @hf.co Text Embeddings Inference v1.9.0 💥 More in the thread 🧵
`hf-mem` is all you need to estimate the required VRAM for inference of any model on @huggingface based on Safetensors metadata. - Written in Python - Lightweight, only depends on `httpx` - Runs w/ `uvx` as `uvx hf-mem ...` - Works with any Safetensors repository - Output inspired by usgraphics.com
🧨 I built something with #Zig! `tokeni.zig` is a std-only implementation of the Byte Pair Encoding (BPE) algorithm in Zig for tokenizing sequences of text, used by OpenAI (among many others) to tokenize the text when pretraining their large language models! github.com/alvarobartt/...
For anyone interested in Zig I wrote a small post titled "How to read and parse JSON with Zig 0.13" that explains how to read JSON from a file with keys with different value types and how to access those values.
love this quote "working smarter helps, but the real superpower is resting smarter" a highly recommended read!
Perhaps unsurprisingly, I have a bunch of Opinions™ on work-life balance and time management. Lately, I've been particularly bugged by the common belief that employer incentives don't align with employee well-being. So, I wrote a thing (with graphs!): thesquareplanet.com/blog/about-4...
🤗 Here's a simple script that calculates the required VRAM for serving DeepSeek R1 from @huggingface Hub safetensor's metadata! P.S. The result of the script above is: "model_id='deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1' requires memory=756.716GB"
hmm refactoring in zig is not as easy as it's in rust, even though seems fairly common too, right? or is it just me? 🤔
Last moments of closed-source AI 🪦 : Hugging Face is openly reproducing the pipeline of 🐳 DeepSeek-R1. Open data, open training. open models, open collaboration. 🫵 Let's go! github.com/huggingface/...

🐐 DeepSeek is not on the @hf.co Hub to take part, they are there to take over! Amazing stuff from the DeepSeek team, ICYMI they recently released some reasoning models (DeepSeek-R1 and DeepSeek-R1-Zero), fully open-source, their performance is on par with OpenAI-o1 and it's MIT licensed!
you can find so much gold in github gists wow, i was not a big fan because the discoverability doesn't seem great, but been exploring gists lately and so much gold stuff in there!
in case anyone missed it, we're running a certified course on ai agents at hugging face starting on feb 2nd; the course is on how to build you own ai agents for different cool use cases built on top of open source! 👇 you can sign up in the link below, don't miss it! bit.ly/hf-learn-age...

Not quite sure yet about how's following me here, but I may consider not just x-posting but also eventually post more random thoughts + content in Spanish, is that something you'd be interested in?
here we go again! i work at hugging face and here you can expect posts about machine learning (llms mainly), some rust, some nvim nerdy stuff and anything related to hugging face 🤗 posting is not easy for me, but i’ll try to do better from now on, support is highly appreciated!
