            {"type": "text", "text": "What animal is on the candy?"}
        ]
    },
]
pipe(text=messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoProcessor, AutoModelForMultimodalLM

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("Intel/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-W4A16-AutoRound")
model = AutoModelForMultimodalLM.from_pretrained("Intel/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-W4A16-AutoRound", 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]:]))

model-00002-of-00017.safetensors is missing please upload

Hi,
During model quantization, an extra copy of the PLE weights was mistakenly saved in model-00002-of-00017.safetensors. After discovering the issue, I removed the redundant weights.

In addition, the corresponding entry in the model index file is marked as False, meaning that model-00002-of-00017.safetensors is not referenced during model loading. Therefore, this issue will not affect model loading or inference.

Please feel free to give the model a try. If you encounter any issues or have any feedback, please let us know. Thank you very much for your interest in this model.
