Reading level
LLaVA-NeXT Video is an extension of the LLaVA model capable of understanding video, not just static images. The remarkable thing is it does this without being specifically trained on video — it uses an intelligent frame sampling technique that treats video as a sequence of images. It answers questions about video clips, summarizes content, and describes actions coherently, opening the door to affordable and accessible video analysis.
