The models climbing Hugging Face's trending chart this week skew heavily image-text-to-text — OvisOCR2 and ThinkingCap-Qwen3.6-27B both cracked the top of the board with strong download and like counts. Multimodal document and OCR-flavoured models look like the current center of gravity, not pure text generation.

Four of the top six slots now split between just two labs, with Kimi K3 the only non-Anthropic/OpenAI model to crack the top four.
Source ↗DeepMind released three new Gemini variants aimed at the low-latency/low-cost end of the lineup, already available on Vercel's AI Gateway on day one. The accompanying docs update quietly deprecates temperature/topp/topk controls on the newest models — worth knowing before porting existing prompts or configs over.
