Summary

Fastino's GLiNER2.5-Decide runs on CPU or GPU and can classify the intent of customer support messages. The creator shares a notebook you can run in Google Colab to try it.

Key points

• GLiNER2.5-Decide runs on both CPU and GPU, so you don't need a big GPU.
• Example use case: intent classification for customer support workflows.
• The creator's notebooks repo has local-model fine-tuning and inference notebooks you can run in Google Colab.
