We are introducing multi-backend support in Hugging Face Text Generation Inference!
With new TGI architecture we are now able to plug new modeling backends to get best performances according to selected model and available hardware. This first step will very soon be followed by the integration of new backends (TRT-LLM, llama.cpp, vLLM, Neuron and TPU).
We are polishing the TensorRT-LLM backend which achieves impressive performances on NVIDIA GPUs, stay tuned π€ !

Introducing ππ
π’π§πππππ‘: the best public math pre-training dataset with 50B+ tokens!
HuggingFaceTB/finemath
Math remains challenging for LLMs and by training on FineMath we see considerable gains over other math datasets, especially on GSM8K and MATH.
We build the dataset by:
π οΈ carefully extracting math data from Common Crawl;
π iteratively filtering and recalling high quality math pages using a classifier trained on synthetic annotations to identify math reasoning and deduction.
We conducted a series of ablations comparing the performance of Llama-3.2-3B-Base after continued pre-training on FineMath and observe notable gains compared to the baseline model and other public math datasets.
We hope this helps advance the performance of LLMs on math and reasoning! π
Weβre also releasing all the ablation models as well as the evaluation code.

We are proud to announce
HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-2: A sparkling update to
HuggingFaceFW/fineweb with 1000s of π£οΈlanguages.
We applied the same data-driven approach that led to SOTA English performance inπ· FineWeb to thousands of languages.
π₯ FineWeb2 has 8TB of compressed text data and outperforms other multilingual datasets in our experiments.
The dataset is released under the permissive π ODC-By 1.0 license, and the π» code to reproduce it and our evaluations is public.
We will very soon announce a big community project, and are working on a π blogpost walking you through the entire dataset creation process. Stay tuned!
In the mean time come ask us question on our chat place: HuggingFaceFW/discussion

SmolVLM speeding locally on a laptop thanks to mlx-vlm and
@Gradio ! Try it with two lines:
pip install git+https://github.com/andimarafioti/mlx-vlm.git@stream-generate-fix
python -m mlx_vlm.chat_ui --model mlx-community/SmolVLM-Instruct-8bit
Gotta love the MLX community! Big thanks to @pcuenq and @prince_canuma !

Let's go! We are releasing SmolVLM, a smol 2B VLM built for on-device inference that outperforms all models at similar GPU RAM usage and tokens throughputs.
- SmolVLM generates tokens 7.5 to 16 times faster than Qwen2-VL! π€―
- Other models at this size crash a laptop, but SmolVLM comfortably generates 17 tokens/sec on a macbook! π
- SmolVLM can be fine-tuned on a Google collab! Or process millions of documents with a consumer GPU!
- SmolVLM even outperforms larger models in video benchmarks, despite not even being trained on videos!
Check out more!

Interesting long read from
@evanmiller-anthropic
on having a better founded statistical approach to Language Model Evaluations:
https://www.anthropic.com/research/statistical-approach-to-model-evals
Worth a read if you're into LLM evaluations!
