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!

Say hello to
We are glad to announce a long-awaited quality-of-life improvement: the Hugging Face CLI has been officially renamed from huggingface-cli to hf!
So... why this change?
Typing huggingface-cli constantly gets old fast. More importantly, the CLI’s command structure became messy as new features were added over time (upload, download, cache management, repo management, etc.). Renaming the CLI is a chance to reorganize commands into a clearer, more consistent format.
We decided not to reinvent the wheel and instead follow a well-known CLI pattern: hf <resource> <action>. Isn't
The full rationale, implementation details, and migration notes are in the blog post: https://huggingface.co/blog/hf-cli

It will be very interesting to benchmark how energy-efficient the new Falcon-Edge is: https://huggingface.co/blog/tiiuae/falcon-edge
Should be super efficient on CPU according to the numbers published for BitNet: https://github.com/microsoft/BitNet/blob/main/assets/intel_performance.jpg

‼️ huggingface_hub's v0.30.0 is out with our biggest update of the past two years!
Full release notes: https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/releases/tag/v0.30.0.
🚀 Ready. Xet. Go!
Xet is a groundbreaking new protocol for storing large objects in Git repositories, designed to replace Git LFS. Unlike LFS, which deduplicates files, Xet operates at the chunk level—making it a game-changer for AI builders collaborating on massive models and datasets. Our Python integration is powered by [xet-core](https://github.com/huggingface/xet-core), a Rust-based package that handles all the low-level details.
You can start using Xet today by installing the optional dependency:
With that, you can seamlessly download files from Xet-enabled repositories! And don’t worry—everything remains fully backward-compatible if you’re not ready to upgrade yet.
Blog post: https://huggingface.co/blog/xet-on-the-hub
Docs: https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/en/storage-backends#xet
⚡ Inference Providers
- We’re thrilled to introduce Cerebras and Cohere as official inference providers! This expansion strengthens the Hub as the go-to entry point for running inference on open-weight models.
- Novita is now our 3rd provider to support text-to-video task after Fal.ai and Replicate.
- Centralized billing: manage your budget and set team-wide spending limits for Inference Providers! Available to all Enterprise Hub organizations.
- No more timeouts when generating videos, thanks to async calls. Available right now for Fal.ai, expecting more providers to leverage the same structure very soon!

SmolVLM-2 and SigLIP-2 are now part of
They're added on top of the v4.49.0 release, and can be installed from the following tags:
This marks a new beginning for the release process of transformers. For the past five years, we've been doing monthly releases featuring many models (v4.49.0, the latest release, features 9 new architectures).
Starting with SmolVLM-2 & SigLIP2, we'll now additionally release tags supporting new models on a stable branch. These models are therefore directly available for use by installing from the tag itself. These tags will continue to be updated with fixes applied to these models.
Going forward, continue expecting software releases following semantic versioning: v4.50.0 will have ~10 new architectures compared to v4.49.0, as well as a myriad of new features, improvements and bug fixes. Accompanying these software releases, we'll release tags offering brand new models as fast as possible, to make them accessible to all immediately.

Nice paper comparing the fp8 inference efficiency of Nvidia H100 and Intel Gaudi2:
An Investigation of FP8 Across Accelerators for LLM Inference (2502.01070)
The conclusion is interesting: "Our findings highlight that the Gaudi 2, by leveraging FP8, achieves higher throughput-to-power efficiency during LLM inference"
One aspect of AI hardware accelerators that is often overlooked is how they consume less energy than GPUs. It's nice to see researchers starting carrying out experiments to measure this!
Gaudi3 results soon...

Interested in performing inference with an ONNX model?⚡️
The Optimum docs about model inference with ONNX Runtime is now much clearer and simpler!
You want to deploy your favorite model on the hub but you don't know how to export it to the ONNX format? You can do it in one line of code as follows:

What a great milestone to celebrate! The huggingface_hub library is slowly becoming a cornerstone of the Python ML ecosystem when it comes to interacting with the
@huggingface
Hub. It wouldn't be there without the hundreds of community contributions and feedback! No matter if you are loading a model, sharing a dataset, running remote inference or starting jobs on our infra, you are for sure using it! And this is only the beginning so give a star if you wanna follow the project 👉 https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub

Exciting updates include:
⚡ InferenceClient is now a drop-in replacement for OpenAI's chat completion!
✨ Support for response_format, adapter_id , truncate, and more in InferenceClient
💾 Serialization module with a save_torch_model helper that handles shared layers, sharding, naming convention, and safe serialization. Basically a condensed version of logic scattered across safetensors, transformers , accelerate
📁 Optimized HfFileSystem to avoid getting rate limited when browsing HuggingFaceFW/fineweb
🔨 HfApi & CLI improvements: prevent empty commits, create repo inside resource group, webhooks API, more options in the Search API, etc.

🚀 I'm excited to announce that huggingface_hub's InferenceClient now supports OpenAI's Python client syntax! For developers integrating AI into their codebases, this means you can switch to open-source models with just three lines of code. Here's a quick example of how easy it is.
Why use the InferenceClient?
🔄 Seamless transition: keep your existing code structure while leveraging LLMs hosted on the Hugging Face Hub.
🤗 Direct integration: easily launch a model to run inference using our Inference Endpoint service.
🚀 Stay Updated: always be in sync with the latest Text-Generation-Inference (TGI) updates.
