smolagents can see 🔥
we just shipped vision support to smolagents 🤗 agentic computers FTW

you can now:
💻 let the agent get images dynamically (e.g. agentic web browser)
📑 pass images at the init of the agent (e.g. chatting with documents, filling forms automatically etc)
with few LoC change! 🤯
you can use transformers models locally (like Qwen2VL) OR plug-in your favorite multimodal inference provider (gpt-4o, antrophic & co) 🤠

ByteDance just dropped SA2VA: a new family of vision LMs combining Qwen2VL/InternVL and SAM2 with MIT license 💗 ByteDance/sa2va-model-zoo-677e3084d71b5f108d00e093

> The models are capable of tasks involving vision-language understanding and visual referrals (referring segmentation) both for images and videos ⏯️

> The models come in 1B, 4B and 8B and are based on InternVL2.5 for base architecture and Qwen2, Qwen2.5 and InternLM2 for language model part (depending on the checkpoint)

> The model is very interesting, it has different encoders for different modalities each (visual prompt, text prompt, image and video) then it concatenates these to feed into LLM 💬

the output segmentation tokens are passed to SAM2, to sort of match text (captions or semantic classes) to masks ⤵️

> Their annotation pipeline is also interesting, they seems to use two open large vision LMs to refine the annotations, and have different levels of descriptions to provide consistency.
