introducing: VLM vibe eval 🪭 visionLMsftw/VLMVibeEval

vision LMs are saturated over benchmarks, so we built vibe eval 💬

> compare different models with refreshed in-the-wild examples in different categories 🤠
> submit your favorite model for eval
no numbers -- just vibes!

emerging trend: models that can understand image + text and generate image + text

don't miss out ⤵️
> MMaDA: single 8B diffusion model aligned with CoT (reasoning!) + UniGRPO Gen-Verse/MMaDA
> BAGEL: 7B MoT model based on Qwen2.5, SigLIP-so-400M, Flux VAE ByteDance-Seed/BAGEL
both by ByteDance! 😱

I keep track of all any input → any output models here merve/any-to-any-models-6822042ee8eb7fb5e38f9b62

Google released MedGemma on I/O'25 👏 google/medgemma-release-680aade845f90bec6a3f60c4

> 4B and 27B instruction fine-tuned vision LMs and a 4B pre-trained vision LM for medicine
> available with transformers from the get-go 🤗

they also released a cool demo for scan reading ➡️ google/rad_explain

use with transformers ⤵️

tis the year of any-to-any/omni models 🤠
ByteDance-Seed/BAGEL-7B-MoT 7B native multimodal model that understands and generates both image + text

it outperforms leading VLMs like Qwen 2.5-VL 👏 and has Apache 2.0 license 😱
