Quick Start

(akin to setting up microsoft/visual-chatgpt)

# clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:justanotherlad/blindvisaidgpt.git

# Go to directory
cd blindvisaidgpt

# create a new environment
conda create -n visgpt python=3.8

# activate the new environment
conda activate visgpt

#  prepare the basic environments
pip install -r requirements.txt

# prepare your private OpenAI key (for Linux)
export OPENAI_API_KEY={Your_Private_Openai_Key}

# prepare your private OpenAI key (for Windows)
set OPENAI_API_KEY={Your_Private_Openai_Key}

# Start blindvisaidgpt !
# You can specify the GPU/CPU assignment by "--load", the parameter indicates which 
# Visual Foundation Model to use and where it will be loaded to
# The model and device are separated by underline '_', the different models are separated by comma ','
# The available Visual Foundation Models can be found in the following table
# For example, if you want to load ImageCaptioning to cpu and VisualQuestionAnswering to cuda:0
# You can use: "ImageCaptioning_cpu,VisualQuestionAnswering_cuda:0"

# Advice for CPU Users (current default)
python visual_chatgpt.py --load ImageCaptioning_cpu,VisualQuestionAnswering_cpu

# Advice for 1 Tesla T4 15GB  (Google Colab)  --(feature yet to be tried)                       
python visual_chatgpt.py --load "ImageCaptioning_cuda:0,VisualQuestionAnswering_cuda:0"
