From GPT2 to Stable Diffusion: Hugging Face arrives to the Elixir community

This post announces the arrival of Hugging Face models (GPT2, Stable Diffusion) to the Elixir community via the new Bumblebee library, a pure Elixir implementation of Hugging Face Transformers. It highlights the underlying Nx project for tensor computation and compilation to CPU/GPU via EXLA and Torchx, as well as related projects Axon and Explorer. The post details how these models can be embedded and served in Elixir applications (Phoenix, Broadway, Nerves) and provides examples for getting started.
