AI models
AI models are the trained systems behind chat assistants, image generators, speech tools and more. This page lists 72 AI models; the latest additions are P-H3-Image-Comfy, LFM3-Omni-2B and LFM3-Audio-2B. Open any project to see what it lets you do, what its creator says you need and its original source.
