@sarahalang@fedihum.org I know @aboutgeo@hcommons.social has worked with SAM, although I don't know if with version 3 specifically?

@felwert@fedihum.org @sarahalang@fedihum.org we've been using SAM2 in https://immarkus.xmarkus.org. Worked ok for us. SAM3 is something I'd like to try. But project didn't have the time/resources yet. Overall, I guess it depends on: i) your expectations :-) ii) the material you're working with (obviously) iii) whether you're using the prompted or unprompted mode (we're only using prompted in IMMARKUS) iv) most importantly, the model size/variant In our case, we used the "tiny" variant only, because that fits entirely into the browser – no server-side embedding needed. The larger variants would give better results I'm sure. (But then you'd need a separate server component which you need to maintain, fund, keep running... not DH-friendly as we know ;-)
