Take a look here: https://playground.roboflow.com/evals. We have few ~30B.

Really? Gemma4-31B should be better than Qwen3.8-27B? I'm happy to test that.

Hi! I’m the author of this blog. I wrote it 4 weeks ago, and it’s already a bit outdated. Gemini 3.7 Flash came out last week, and considering the price, it’s easily the best vision model right now: https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088032652301304121?s=20

Hi! I’m the author of this blog.

I’m evaluating these VLMs to figure out which ones are good enough to auto-annotate my data, so I can fine-tune my detector.

I wrote a bit more about this here: https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2080334344061694429?s=20

Hi! I’m the author of this blog. GPT-5.6 is much better at vision than previous GPT versions, but it’s still much weaker than Gemini 3.5 Flash or Gemini 3.7 Flash, which was released last week. One interesting approach is to use Gemini through a tool call.

Hi! I’m the author of this blog and benchmark. You’re right. I’ll fix it in the ground-truth dataset. Thanks for pointing it out.

Hi! I’m the author of this blog. I had the same intuition, but together with the OpenAI team we figured out that the issue was image resolution. GPT-5.6 doesn’t handle large images well.

Hi! I’m the author of this blog. I regularly benchmark new VLM releases. You can check the results for Qwen3.8-Max and Qwen3.8-27B here: https://playground.roboflow.com/evals

Hi, I’m the author of this blog. It depends on how strong of a model you need, but in general, Qwen is easily the best among the Chinese models right now.

Over the last two weeks, Qwen released two new models. Qwen3.8-Max is totally insane, but it’s only available through the Alibaba Cloud API. I wrote a similar blog covering Qwen3.8-Max: [https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/](https://blog.roboflow.com/qwen3-8-max/)

If you’re looking for something you can run locally, Qwen3.8-27B might be a great option. On Friday, I did a quick comparison between Qwen3.8-Max and Qwen3.8-27B: [https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20](https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088411215441621469?s=20)

Hi, I’m the author of this blog post. I wrote it about 4 weeks ago, and the VLM world is moving so fast that it’s already kinda outdated. I think Gemini 3.7 Flash might be a better choice now, especially when you factor in the price.

Here’s a comparison of the best low-cost models I put together last week. What’s crazy is that Gemini 3.7 Flash is now 50% off on OpenRouter, and this chart doesn’t even account for that discount. https://x.com/skalskip92/status/2088032652301304121?s=20

code: https://colab.research.google.com/github/roboflow-ai/noteboo...

- player and number detection with RF-DETR

- player tracking with SAM2

- team clustering with SigLIP, UMAP and K-Means

- number recognition with SmolVLM2

- perspective conversion with homography

- player trajectory correction

- shot detection and classification

use computer vision to automatically extract player and ball position, plot it on pitch radar, and calculate advanced metrics

yup! the point here is to show step by step how to perform video segmentation with SAM2

Hi! Supervision does not run models, but it connects to existing detection and segmentation libraries, allowing you to do more advanced stuff easily. Take a look here to get a high-level overview: https://supervision.roboflow.com/latest/how_to/detect_and_an....

As for Roboflow, you can use the `inference` package to run (among other things) all Roboflow Universe models locally. Take a look at README examples: https://github.com/roboflow/inference.

You can always slice the images into smaller ones, run detection on each tile, and combine results. Supervision has a utility for this - https://supervision.roboflow.com/latest/detection/tools/infe..., but it only works with detections. You can get a much more accurate result this way. Here is some side-by-side comparison: https://github.com/roboflow/supervision/releases/tag/0.14.0.

Hi swyx! The easiest way would be to train a custom model to detect raised hands. I found one on Roboflow - https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=raised%20hand. I'm not sure how good it would be on your images, so I'd recommend adding some of your pictures. Then you just detect hands and detect people and calculate the ratio.

Oh my, if you'd like to contribute lens distortion removal... That would make me super happy!

I'm 95% sure I'll be in Seattle this year.

Hi everyone! I'm one of the maintainers of Supervision. Thanks for putting our project on the HN front page. It really made my day!

Hi @eloisus! I'm the creator of Supervision. Over the years, I've noticed that there are certain code snippets I find myself rewriting for each of my computer vision projects. My friends in the field have expressed similar frustrations. While OpenCV is fantastic, it can be verbose, and its API is often inconsistent and hard to remember.

Regarding "drawing detections on an image or video," we aim for maximum flexibility. We offer 18 different annotators for detection and segmentation models, available at https://supervision.roboflow.com/latest/annotators. Each annotator is customizable and can be combined with others. Moreover, we strive to simplify the integration of these annotators with the most popular computer vision libraries.

Edit: I just check your LinkedIn. I think we met on CVPR last year.

Hi @simonw your tweets were motivation for me to write this blogpost. Same with this one: https://blog.roboflow.com/chatgpt-code-interpreter-computer-... when I dove deep into Code Interpreter. Most of my jailbreaking and prompt injection adventures are linked to you. Thanks a lot!

You are asking in the context of this blogpost?

Hi I'm the autor of the blog post. Most of the time it is. It is not connected to internet. So in case of Code Interpreter you can run untreated code no problem.

In this case I'm mostly worried about running GPT-4 Vision over the API in the future. It will be plugged into products. Many products connect LLM to databases, calendars, or emails. Than you could use chat interface to extract that data.

Hi! I'm the author. :) I can agree I had problems with tables as well. I tried crosswords and sudoku. My assumption is that it does not work well when it needs to position the text in the spatial context of table or grid. I found BARD to work a lot better with those examples.

I found it to work really well with weirdly positioned text. Like serial number on tire.

They do sometimes. In case of Code Interpreter for example. You should use chat interface not treat it as terminal. So you shouldn't ask to change working directory or instal unauthorised python packages. If you ask for it it will tell you it is not allowed. But if you social engineer LLM to do it, it will do it.

I agree with that opinion. Hacking LLM feels like social engineering. Few months ago I spend 2 weeks of my life hacking Code Interpreter. Most of the time I needed to ask, lie or trick it into doing something.

Hi everyone! I wrote that blogpost. Thanks a lot for all the interest.

On September 25, 2023, OpenAI announced the launch of a new feature that expands how people interact with its latest and most advanced model, GPT-4V(ision): the ability to ask questions about images. Among other things, GPT-4 is now able to read the text found in uploaded images. At the same time, this update opened a new vector of attack on Large Language Models (LLMs). Instead of putting a malicious phrase in a text prompt, it can be injected through an image.

- text vs. vision prompt injection - vision prompt injection using INVISIBLE text - STEALING data with vision prompt injection - preventing prompt injection (spoiler: not much you can do for now)
