Oh and by the way, InstructBLIP directly comes with 4-bit and 8-bit inference thanks to the magic of @Tim_Dettmers, enabling same performance and reducing the amount of memory by half or more!!
Hat/tip to @younesbelkada for integrating 💪
InstructBLIP by @salesforce is now available @huggingface !
A vision-language instruction tuned version of BLIP-2, making it possible to chat about images as shown below 🤗
Have fun playing with it!

Waar komt ChatGPT plots vandaan? Wat is generatieve AI en hoe gaat het ons leven veranderen? We leggen het uit, met veel dank aan @LaurentSorber, @NathalieSmuha en @slatre. En @janlooy en ML6 collega's ook, al zit hun input vooral in een later stuk.
