We implemented a major new feature in the AIL Project that addresses a long-standing issue related to the collection of images or screenshots that may be harmful to analysts (e.g., violent content, CSAM, etc.). The feature allows users to trigger the description of an image before actually viewing it.

The feature will be included in the upcoming release of AIL (version 6.2).

This work is co-funded in the AIPITCH project. We would like to thank Qwen for the open source Qwen2-VL vision-language models which provide an excellent basis for image detection and description while allowing local inferences.

Technical note: I’ll be using #GreenMSCA and #GreenAcadeMiles tags for all my posts related to this topic. If you are not much into my other stuff (#visual #anthropology #music), I suggest you follow these hashtags only.

Let’s jump into it!
