What it does

HuggingChat is a chat app that runs on open-source AI models. Its Omni option automatically picks the model it judges best for each request, and you can also choose any of the available open-source models to chat with directly. The model list on the page shows 138 models. The page also highlights a new mode called ML Intern, whose tag line lists papers, training, spaces, datasets, eval and hub. A settings area is available from the app, and a note on the page warns that generated content may be inaccurate or false. The page does not state pricing or whether an account is needed.
