A curated index of impactful AI tools and models, that emphasizes technical merit, practical utility and Prioritizing open-source.

Effective AI use requires understanding capabilities, limitations, and bias mitigation strategies.

Introduction

Navigating the rapidly evolving field of Artificial Intelligence can be overwhelming. This repository serves as a comprehensive, curated guide designed for developers, data scientists, researchers, students, and AI enthusiasts seeking practical tools, cutting-edge models, and valuable learning resources.

Our goal is to help you discover, compare, and select the right AI solutions for your projects by providing structured information, comparisons, and direct links. We place a strong emphasis on open-source options while also including noteworthy proprietary tools.

Understanding the Indicators:

Throughout this guide, you may see the following indicator:

: Indicates proprietary software, requires payment/subscription for full use, or has restrictive licensing.

implies Open Source or a significant free tier, but always verify specific licenses before use.

LLM Scoring Framework:

Since benchmarks cannot always be trusted and existing leaderboards typically focus only on one aspect of modern LLMs' capabilities, we chose to develop our own approach.

Our approach aims to cover a wide range of benchmarks, leaderboards, community assessments, and technical specifications, trying to provide an unbiased estimation of the overall capacities of any public LLM.

Note

Formerly developed within this repository, the scoring framework is now under development in a dedicated repository LLMScoreEngine.

This section will be updated as more open-source and accessible video generation models emerge.

Image-to-Video Models

Image-to-video models employ temporal diffusion algorithms to synthesize video sequences from static image inputs, generating coherent motion patterns and frame transitions.

Foundation Models

Language Only Large Language Models

Large Language Models (LLMs) are artificial intelligence systems trained on large amounts of text data to recognize patterns and generate human-like language.

This overview focuses on instruction-tuned models for consistency. Fine-tuned variants, though numerous and constantly developing, are not included in this comparison. For details on specific implementations, see the "Fine-tuned Models section" section below.

Models are ranked using our scoring framework, which considers multiple factors such as Entity & Publisher benchmarks, human preference, and technical features (Higher score is better).

Advanced Language and Reasoning LLMs

Open source Models

Note that a higher score does not guarantee better performance across all tasks or domains; it provides an overall evaluation within the model's own size category.

Tip

Whether you're just starting out, have some experience, or are an advanced user, our tutorial guides you through deploying LLMs locally using tools suited to your skill level.

Large-scale models (70+ billion parameters) : These require substantial amounts of RAM and GPU memory, making local installation impractical for most users. As a result, these models are typically deployed on cloud-based platforms that provide the necessary computational resources.

Multimodal Foundation Models

Vision Language Models

Vision Language Models (VLMs) integrate visual perception and language processing architectures to enable multi-modal understanding and generation. Technical details available on Huggingface.co.

Deploy these open-source models locally using our Local LLM Deployment Guide : How to run LLMs on your machine.

Note

The models are ranked according to their Open VLM Leaderboard average score (higher score is better).

This benchmark use different method to evaluate various VLMs capabilities, later used to calculate the Overall score. However, the top-ranked model might not be number one in all specific capacities.

Open source VLMs

Large-scale models (70+ billion parameters) : These require significant amounts of both RAM and GPU memory, often rendering local installation infeasible for most users. Consequently, such models are predominantly deployed on cloud-based platforms designed to provide the essential computational resources needed.
