+### Streaming output
+
+Besides this method, you can also use the following code to get streamed output.
+
+```python
+from transformers import TextIteratorStreamer
+from threading import Thread
+
+# Initialize the streamer
+streamer = TextIteratorStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True, skip_special_tokens=True, timeout=10)
+# Define the generation configuration
+generation_config = dict(num_beams=1, max_new_tokens=1024, do_sample=False, streamer=streamer)
+# Start the model chat in a separate thread
+thread = Thread(target=model.chat, kwargs=dict(
+    tokenizer=tokenizer, pixel_values=pixel_values, question=question,
+    history=None, return_history=False, generation_config=generation_config,
+))
+thread.start()
+
+# Initialize an empty string to store the generated text
+generated_text = ''
+# Loop through the streamer to get the new text as it is generated
+for new_text in streamer:
+    if new_text == model.conv_template.sep:
+        break
+    generated_text += new_text
+    print(new_text, end='', flush=True)  # Print each new chunk of generated text on the same line
+```
