How to use Dexy2/Piko-9b with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-text-to-text", model="Dexy2/Piko-9b")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Dexy2/Piko-9b")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("Dexy2/Piko-9b", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": [
            {"type": "image", "url": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/p-blog/candy.JPG"},
            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
inputs = processor.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(processor.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

	This product includes software and model weights developed by third parties.
	Piko-9b is not trained from scratch: its published weights are a tensor-level
	composition of two upstream checkpoints. Both upstream licences apply to the
	corresponding portions of the weights and must be preserved in redistribution.

	Training data
	================================================================================

	The QLoRA fine-tuning stages that produced the language backbone used datasets
	whose individual licences are not fully documented in this repository. Dataset
	manifests record category names and row counts, but several upstream sources
	are identified only by local filename. This is recorded as an unresolved
	provenance gap in reports/repository_audit.md rather than asserted to be clear.
