Vision Language Models (VLMs) can understand both images and text simultaneously, enabling tasks like image captioning, visual question answering, and multimodal reasoning. Just like LLMs, VLMs are trained to predict the next token — but with the added ability to process visual information. For example, [`HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Base`](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Base) is a base VLM model, while [`HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct`](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct) is instruction-tuned for chat-like interactions with users.
