Explore the latest advancement in TinyChat and AWQ – the integration of Visual Language Models (VLM) on the edge! The exciting advancements in VLM allows LLMs to comprehend visual inputs, enabling seamless image understanding tasks like caption generation, question answering, and more. With the latest release, TinyChat now supports leading VLMs such as VILA, which can be easily quantized with AWQ, empowering users with seamless experience for image understanding tasks.

In this blog, we introduce DistriFusion, a training-free algorithm to harness multiple GPUs to accelerate diffusion model inference without sacrificing image quality. It can reduce SDXL latency by up to 6.1× on 8 A100s. Our work has been accepted by CVPR 2024 as a highlight.

Running large language models (LLMs) on the edge is of great importance. In this blog, we introduce TinyChat, an efficient and lightweight system for LLM deployment on the edge. It runs Meta's latest LLaMA-2 model at 30 tokens / second on NVIDIA Jetson Orin and can easily support different models and hardware.

In MCUNetV3, we enable on-device training under 256KB SRAM and 1MB Flash, using less than 1/1000 memory of PyTorch while matching the accuracy on the visual wake words application. It enables the model to adapt to newly collected sensor data and users can enjoy customized services without uploading the data to the cloud thus protecting privacy.
