We have recently added Torch Stable ABI support to kernels and kernel-builder. This allows kernel developers to target a particular Torch version and the kernel will be supported on that Torch version and later Torch versions (up to ~2 years).

This makes it much easier to write kernels with long-term support and not just the last two Torch releases.

We have also started rolling out Stable ABI support to kernels in kernels-community, starting with Flash Attention 3, supporting Torch 2.9 and later as well as CUDA versions starting at 12.6:

Sharing how I built the LongCat-Video-Avatar 1.5 Space (+500k views on X) in one agent session. Gave a coding agent its own AI lab on ZeroGPU, framed the goal, walked away. It designed, deployed, tested against the live API, fixed, shipped.

Open agents on AWS SageMaker AI with open models from the Hugging Face Hub!

> Deploy an open model from the Hugging Face Hub on SageMaker AI
> Connect the deployed model to Strands Agents
> Add built-in and custom tools for tool calling
> Expose external capabilities through MCP integration
> Bonus: talk to your agent and visualize traces with Gradio

Two large changes in kernel-builder this week:

kernel-builder now links libstdc++ dynamically. To support a wide range of systems, we build against libstdc++ from manylinux_2_28 (EL 8 and later).

Following our Torch support policy that the current and previous Torch versions are supported, Torch 2.10 support was removed. We will soon also support the Torch stable ABI, so that it is possible to write kernels that support a large number of Torch versions.

Latest hf-mem release added a breakdown of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) memory usage!

TL; DR MoEs can be misleading to reason about from active parameters alone, since each token only activates a subset of experts, while the serving setup still needs to account for the full resident memory footprint.

🧠 hf-mem now splits MoE memory into base model weights, routed experts, and KV cache
🏗️ Dense models usually load and use most weights every forward pass, while MoEs load many experts but only route each token to a few of them
⚡ Active params isn't the same as memory footprint, especially for sparse architectures
📦 Runtime memory is about what is used per request/token, while loading memory also includes the expert weights that need to be resident
📚 KV cache can still dominate depending on context length, batch size, and concurrency
🔀 Expert Parallelism (EP) helps shard experts across accelerators when expert weights dominate
🚀 Data Parallelism (DP) + EP is often a good fit for throughput-oriented MoE serving

Want to share my enthusiasm for zai-org/GLM-5.1 here too 🔥

I think we have it: our open source Claude Code = GLM-5.1 + Pi (https://pi.dev/) - Built a Three.js racing game to eval and it's extremely impressive. Thoughts:

- One-shot car physics with real drift mechanics (this is hard)

- My fav part: Awesome at self iterating (with no vision!) created 20+ Bun.WebView debugging tools to drive the car programmatically and read game state. Proved a winding bug with vector math without ever seeing the screen

- 531-line racing AI in a single write: 4 personalities, curvature map, racing lines, tactical drifting. Built telemetry tools to compare player vs AI speed curves and data-tuned parameters

- All assets from scratch: 3D models, procedural textures, sky shader, engine sounds, spatial AI audio!

- Can do hard math: proved road normals pointed DOWN via vector cross products, computed track curvature normalized by arc length to tune AI cornering speed

You are going to hear about this model a lot in the next months - open source let's go - and thanks z-ai🚀🚀

Interesting article: use Claude Code to help open models write CUDA kernels (for eg) by turning CC traces into Skills. They made a library out of it 👀

💥 hf-mem v0.4.1 now also estimates KV cache memory requirements for any context length and batch size with the --experimental flag!

uvx hf-mem --model-id ... --experimental will automatically pull the required information from the Hugging Face Hub to include the KV cache estimation, when applicable.

💡 Alternatively, you can also set the --max-model-len, --batch-size and --kv-cache-dtype arguments (à la vLLM) manually if preferred.

We're kick-starting the process of Transformers v5, with @ArthurZ and @cyrilvallez !

v5 should be significant: we're using it as a milestone for performance optimizations, saner defaults, and a much cleaner code base worthy of 2025.

Fun fact: v4.0.0-rc-1 came out on Nov 19, 2020, nearly five years ago!

Super excited to announce that our research team at Hugging Face will be doing an AMA on reddit r/LocalLLaMA.

Come ask any questions to the team behind SmolLM, FineWeb and more! And who knows, maybe there’ll be a shiny new release to talk about?

Thursday 4th September, 8AM-11AM PST 🤗

Motif 2.6B tech report is pretty insane, first time i see a model with differential attention and polynorm trained at scale!

> It's trained on 2.5T of token, with a "data mixture schedule" to continuously adjust the mixture over training.
> They use WSD with a "Simple moving average" averaging the last 6 ckpt every 8B token.
> They trained on Finemath, Fineweb2, DCLM, TxT360.
> Lot of details in the finetuning data they used, for instance they used EvolKit and did some "dataset fusion" to have more compressed knowledge into the data.
> They mention they also tried Normalized GPT, QK-Norm and Cross Layer Attention.

Okay this is insane... WebGPU-accelerated semantic video tracking, powered by DINOv3 and Transformers.js! 🤯
Demo (+ source code): webml-community/DINOv3-video-tracking

This will revolutionize AI-powered video editors... which can now run 100% locally in your browser, no server inference required (costs $0)! 😍

How does it work? 🤔
1️⃣ Generate and cache image features for each frame
2️⃣ Create a list of embeddings for selected patch(es)
3️⃣ Compute cosine similarity between each patch and the selected patch(es)
4️⃣ Highlight those whose score is above some threshold

... et voilà! 🥳

You can also make selections across frames to improve temporal consistency! This is super useful if the object changes its appearance slightly throughout the video.

Excited to see what the community builds with it!
